[quote=Anonymous]Hi everyone. A developmental ped just diagnosed my son with global dyspraxia and expressive language disorder. She recommended genetic testing if we wanted to do it. Is this something I should do? Im unclear of what the testing will do for us? Ive already had enough emotional distress the last year and a half with teachers expressing concern and with private ot and speech- watching the sessions and trying to learn/understand whats going on. The diagnosis makes perfect sense and Im finally in a place where I understand/accept everything and am less stressed from it all. What is genetic testing going to show or not show? Is it info that we need or is it just extra digging to potentially cause more distress? Im just unclear and dont want to put unnecessary stress on ourselves after what has been a very stressful process. Thanks![/quote]
