Jonathan:
Only you can decide whether or not you want to go for a diagnosis.
I chose to, and even though I was quite sure I had AS, I was still
devastated when I got an official diagnosis!!
I wrote to Lorna Wing and Judith Gould at Elliott House---The NAS
website will have the full address, should you wish to go ahead with
this.
You are welcome here, whether you are officially diagnosed or not!!!!
