Hello everyone,

 

I have just joined this site and thought I would introduce myself. I have a 6 year old son who I think has Aspergers.

 

The school have now noticed too. He has been on an IEP for his social issues and concentration problems for 3 months and has made no improvement. We have now decided to go to our GP for a referral and to get him a formal diagnosis.

 

I am worried about the appointment tomorrow and worried that he won't get a referral, any advice would be really appreciated.

 

Thank you all and I look forward to getting to know you over the coming months

Welcome to the forum. :)

 

Do you have a list to take with you of all your concerns about your son?

 

Good luck - let us know how it goes.

welcome to the forum :thumbs:

Good luck today. Like others have said, take a list of your concerns,things you notice at home and the things at school even if they seem small, it all helps to build a picture.

Thank you so much all of you. We are back from the GP, we made a list of our concerns and took the IEP along too. She feels there is a case for referral and is going to contact the community peadiatrician (sp??!) on our behalf. I will keep you posted on our progress. I feel a mixture of sadness and relief to be honest. I just want to be able to get out son the help that he needs so that he can flourish and be happy.

 

Thanks again
