My mother's intuition had told me for a long time that my son is on the spectrum. He has had a variety of interventions (OT, PT, SPT, EC) from 6 weeks on so he doesn't quite fall within the clinical diagnosis of Autism or Aspergers or PPD. BUT - he just had a chromosome microarray done and there is a duplication of 15q13.2q13.3
Has anyone gotten a diagnosis based on chromosomes instead of clinical criteria?
Anyone know anything about duplicate chromosomes? He has dups in 2 and 15.
Thanks!

Hmm... I've never heard of that. I was diagnosed due to clinical markers-- no speech, no facial expressions, extreme sensory sensitivity, developmental milestones absent or extremely late... and I have never heard of chromosomes having anything to do with it. Then again, I've never had my chromosomes tested... at least not that I know of.
