[quote=Anonymous]http://bostonglobe.com/lifestyle/health-wellness/2012/03/25/are-you-ready-for-wellness-coaching/YlLbjZFPwPeWebwyKeFOjM/story.html Though there is no known cure for it, fully one-third of children once diagnosed with autism are no longer considered to be on the spectrum by the time they pass adolescence. It’s not yet clear how many of those children should not have been diagnosed in the first place, and how many improved enough to lose the label. The ones who are most likely to be taken off the spectrum are the ones with the fewest physical symptoms, said Li-Ching Lee, a psychiatric epidemiologist at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.
