so much to say after reading this!!!!
First, my nephew has aspie. He was finally admitted into a school that specializes in autism. He has been there for about 6 mo. now and my sister in law says its like night and day difference in him. But with the comment on how autism and chiari have been found together...I would love some more info on this. I have never heard this, and she hasnt either. Has me very curious.
Also, my oldest DD was sent to a specialist because she had leg pain. They discovered she has patella femoral syndrome . While there the Dr noticed her spine/ribs/shoulders. he said that this is a birth defect. We had never noticed it as a small child. It has increased as she has gotten older, now teenager.  For the life of me I cant remember what he called it, but explained that her frame/bones were formed to curve in. Nothing to help but she could try exercises to help the muscles. He never gave us any exercises. Now I am thinking about the EDS, as all of my kids are beyond flexible and perform little freak shows to friends and guests showing how unique they are because of the things they contort their body into.  I too am very flexible and use to be able to sit and put both legs up and behind my head.  So many things to wonder about now!!!!

Now that I think about it the symptoms definity can be innerchangable with aspergers.Burst out fits are irritability and a symptom of chiari.That means sis was incorrect. I wonder how many other psychologists were wrong about their patients.
