May have Asperger's syndrome. Any advice?
Patient: Good Afternoon, We believe after talking to some people that our 29 year old son may be suffering from a mild form of Asbergus symdrome. Reading about it online he seems to have many of the signs. He lives with his girlfriend who has been very supportive & sympathetic to him so far! He has eventually (but not happy about it) agreed to go see a doctor with her. Have you any advise..is this the first step..Thank you.... Breda Hayes Doctor: Hello As per me Asperger syndrome should be diagnosed Only after detailed evaluation , for this an expert is required. So it is a good decision that his girlfriend has planned to see a doctor for it. It would be best if she consult a psychiatrist specifically.
