Sep. 8th, 2002 08:32 pmI saw the neurologist again during the last week of August. His verdict on the question of whether or not I have Asperger's was, "I really can't tell." From his point of view, there aren't any hard diagnostic criteria. He says that it's certainly possi ble, particularly given my mother's description of my childhood behavior, but he's simply out of his depth. He's going to consult with a couple of experts (assuming he can find some who are willing. I gave him the names my mother gave me) and has referr ed me for "neuropsychometric testing." I don't yet have an appointment for that set up, but I'm kind of curious to see what comes of it. I'm kind of amused by the fact that this is pretty much how I thought the process would go.1t
