Hello all, I have just been diagnosed with dyspraxia

Post by kierant29 »

Hello everyone, my name is kieran, I am new to this forum and have only recently been diagnosed with dyspraxia at the age of 29. I came here to learn more about the condition I have and maybe make a few friends who also have dyspraxia. I also have been diagnosed with adhd and aspergers syndrome (autism) after a long battle of doctors saying I didn't have any of those conditions, it was only because I told the doctor that I might have dyspraxia that it was finally looked at and was confirmed the same day that it was dyspraxia, I am pleased that I got a quick diagnosis.

Hi Keiran

Welcome to your Tribe!

You should probably buy a Euromillions ticket.
Most GPs have few if any options for referring adults for screening.

Where are you located, this may be useful for other forum members trying to get confirmation.
