Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 My son is 2 3/4 years old and we are in the process of figuring out what is going on with him. He is currently " undiagnosed " but we are growing increasingly concerned that he may be on the spectrum and AS in particular. We are mostly concerned because his profile is so " uneven " . He is in the 9 % for gross motor- per the PT eval and he toe walks 80% of the time. He can not get from the car into CVS without falling several times. ...And yet he is reading. Really reading. Street signs, beginning readers, etc. I can only assume it is " hyperlexia " . I have recently started seeing a nutitionist at a DAN! doctor's office (which I am sure is controversial to some) but for us it has been helpful from a biomedical perspective so far. But we have only just begun treatment. He is currently CFGF and going CF and dairy free was a vital change for Nick. His whole personality changed when we removed dairy. I am also very concerned about the social piece for Nick. He just started pre-school in Sept. but every day I pick him up he is playing solo on the playground which I know is a hallmark symptom. Anyone with experience getting an AS diagnosis on a child this young. Any ideas? Alyssa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
