[quote=Anonymous]I think if he's meeting social interaction goals then it's not ASD, because that's the core of ASD's diagnostic criteria. But it could be a more subtle presentation of ASD that will be evident a little later when the goals are harder for him to meet. I would keep it as a possibility for now. Perhaps it's a combination of sensory processing disorder plus anxiety plus a digestive problem such as a food intolerance that you haven't figured out yet. I think you're right to focus on the acute issues as they are affecting his daily life and growth quite a bit. Sometimes you just have to wait for a firm diagnosis, and that's frustrating. But you are trying your best to help your son with his most pressing issues and that will help him regardless of what he is eventually diagnosed with.[/quote]
