How did you first find out about AS?
How old were you at the time?
My mom went to Jamaica for her friend's wedding. Since she's the opposite of me (socially), she made a lot of friends there. One woman had a daughter with AS and when my mom told her about me, she said it sounded like I had it. Sometime after my mom came back (and did research on it), she insisted I had it. She took me to get an MRI of my brain, an EEG, etc. She took me to supposedly one of the best pediatric neurologists, and so I was diagnosed against my will. I was 16 at the time and didn't believe I had it.
