Guest guest Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 Genetics is important please take in consideration the 10-20% of children considered autistic but having Phelan-McDermid Syndrome (22q13 deletion).This is strictly genetic. Ami Re: Genetic Testing A doctor who does not believe in the value of gentic studies and genetic testing does not seem like a very good doctor to me. Of course, that is *my* opinion, but genetics play a major role in the outcome of our own selves. What we choose to do with our genetic health history, enviromentally, can change the outcome of a person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a very rare genetic disorder. > > Genetics is important > please take in consideration the 10-20% of children considered autistic but having > Phelan-McDermid Syndrome (22q13 deletion).This is strictly genetic. > Ami > [sPAM] Re: Re: Genetic Testing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
