Is anyone familiar with the Gilliam Aspergers Disorder Scale? We completed both the GARS and the GADS for my daughter. She tested as being clearly not autistic on the GARS, but she ended up in about the 16th percentile on the GADS which the psychologist said is concerning. It doesn't mean she is definitely Asperger's, he said, but that more testing is needed to determine whether or not she is.
Does anyone have any insight on the GADS and what the results mean, as well as maybe what other tests we can expect to help verify or rule our Asperger's?
Thank you!

I am the mother of two beautiful miracle children. This used to be my infertility blog, but as we are no longer trying to conceive, this will now be the place I come to talk about the issues in my life - the main ones revolving around my children. My daughter has diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, Sensory Processing Disorder, ADHD, Anxiety and Mood Disorder-NOS. My son was also recently diagnosed with ADHD and Asperger's. Comments are welcome, but I do ask that you be respectful when you do.
