I will take this up with tdoc and/or pdoc at some point, though I suspect they know already...
I have taken the autism quiz here and get a 30, which is kind of borderline (lowest score above the "no autism" level). The odd thing is that I went back and changed the ones I was waffling on to the other choice and still got a 30; I guess they cancelled each other out. Anyway, my history of social awkwardness continues to this day according to my wife. She is correct, she doesn't know the full story, but the only reason I was able to date and marry was because I was seduced by an older woman at my first professional job and she trained me how to treat her. My dating and seductions were very methodical (I don't dare tell my wife this) following the formula I learned with her. I have few friends and no close friends that I have known less than 30 years and I have some quirks that are not affected by mood.
Long winded way of saying there is stuff besides BP that makes me different than other people.
But the question is in the title - would anything really change? I mean as far as treatment goes. I don't want to slow the wheels of progress by throwing in another factor. I really think the tdoc knows anyway.
