Finally had the letter from the initial social communication clinic. There is no clear statement such as diagnosis: xxxxxx, but the conclusion says:
(Number of positive points)....the history would point to a diagnosis of high functioning autism. We recognise xxxx is benefitting from.....We would recommend xxxc has further social communication assessment by xxxxx as that is where she has her greatest challenge'
Is it saying we think it's this based on history, but we need to assess further? Or would they not say it at all if unsure?
