So Alex's doctors believe that he probably has Asperger's Syndrome (a sort of mild form of autism). However, if he received a diagnosis of Asperger's, insurance companies have a tendency to deny him benefits, refuse to insure him, etc. So, he may have a more serious neurological problem or he may have the more likely mild form of Asperger's.
Since, we've made changes (moving, his own room, etc) that seem to have helped him function very well, they're suggesting doing nothing at this time. They are doing some research to find out if he can get evaluated at another place (and it not effect his insurability) or if we should discuss it again (yep you guessed it), next year at his next well check.
