[QUOTE="SRL, post: 174484, member: 701"] Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) is an umbrella term for Autism as well as several other disorders. Most of the time in the US Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified is referring to Autism that doesn't fit exactly into one of the categories (ie not Asperger's, not High Functioning Autism, etc). Tics are fairly common in kids with any of the Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)'s, including Autism. I would take any suggestion of a diagnosis given over the phone with a grain of salt. Ditto the internet. There are many overlapping traits in kids who wind up with diagnosis's of Tourette's, Autism, and Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) so you want to have him seen by a specialist who can help differentiate. If you're doing internet research, Autism and Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified are pretty interchangeable. [/QUOTE]
