I am 43 years old and all my life I have had what seems to me to be something like autism. At this point in my life I have sensory issues, I am obsessive about lots of things, I find myself doing things for comfort like rocking or holding a stuffed animal. I have had neurophycological testing done that showed I have problems with language, attention, and switching cognitive set which I dont know what that means. Anyways I can operate a computer but not drive a car. I can balance a checkbook but not know what bills to give the cashier at the store. I have muscle jerking that is triggered by sensory things or stress. And I am obsessive about how I do things. When I was a child I had no family doctor and my problems were just treated like behavior issues, but I am wondering if as an adult should I mention these things to my doctor or is it something that doesnt matter too much if I have lived with these things this long. I have heard that a genetic test is available. Is this correct ? Would doctors really be concerned about possible autism in a person my age?
