What is the difference between this type of avoidance and Pathological Demand Avoidance? (a newly recognised sub group on the autistic spectrum)

If someone has already been diagnosed with autism years ago before PDA was known about is PDA more likely than AvPD? I ask this here because PDA also causes severe social phobia behvaiour/symptoms and could be missed?
