Now i know i wont get any replies to this
but my brother was recently diagnosed with
very mild autism, I know for a fact its
only because hes shy around strangers and
i mean who isnt?
What im saying is he is just shy around
strangers but not his close family,
The doctor had a 10 min interview with him
and came out with mild autism, he has to
go back for a check up every 3 years , if
he had it surley he wouldnt need a check
up?
He is ok with me and his mates and always
has a laugh,
What are your thoughts?

Autism Diagnosis Are Rampant Posted: 07-22-07 23:11pm
Hi,
My daughter was diagnosed with mild autism
by a child psychologist and my wife and I
were devasted.
We later went to a group of psychologists
that specialise in the diagnosis of autism
and flat out told us the the first
diagnosis was wrong.
the autism specialist told us that autism
diagnosis are being done wrong by many so
called specialists... so please dont be
alarmed
hope this helps ....
