    Asperger´s is interfering with medical treatment.

    Update: I went to the GP and I think I have a workable solution. The reason why I say "I think" is that dang communication problem. I had to keep interrupting the GP's spiel. It wasn't about why the clinic doctors wanted to test me. It was about them causing a panic attack and why I ripped the...

    Asperger´s is interfering with medical treatment.

    "How deep is the x-ray burn? " I would consider it 2nd degree. It just takes time to heal bodily. Mentally, I am terrified of x-rays now. "Have the doctors asked you to sign a written consent form for any procedures they performed on you?" Normally they do, but I had no time to sign for the...

    Asperger´s is interfering with medical treatment.

    Thanks Mary, I am not obese but that would not matter to me in this situation. They burnt me. It was Destructive Testing, As opposed to Non Destructive Testing. I did not need anymore testing and I most certainly was not going to NDT. I had turned down a biopsy and spinal tap so now they were...

    Asperger´s is interfering with medical treatment.

    All illnesses and challenges are ultimately personal. I although I would tell it to another that I don´t know, posting it on a forum is a different animal to me. My perceptions are that they do not know what they are doing. Or else I don´t think I would have this problem. So after reading...

    Asperger´s is interfering with medical treatment.

    I don't find that radiation burns are negligible. Although, I am not as susceptible as a younger person, Radiation is a cause of cancer. I am not aware of anything that is suggesting a cancer, and my test results show no change in my condition for over 2 years. Tumor markers are all ok except...

    Asperger´s is interfering with medical treatment.

    Hi Tom, Most all Doctors speak English here. The problem is, is that there is not much communication. Also, similar as you said (not implied), I am not an uneducated patient from a 3rd world country. My mother became a nurse when I was 11 or 12 years old. I had read most of her books before she...

    Asperger´s is interfering with medical treatment.

    ok, I read that. It doesn't speak about my type of issue. It speaks about treatment errors of the doctor and the patients right to know. Not about making the treatment program accessible to affected persons. For instance, Asperger´s preventing me from getting tests done that I may need. But...

    Hi All, Can some one help me? I am a 56 year old American male living in Germany. I was diagnosed in 2013 here in Germany. I am supposed to be undergoing some unrelated medical tests. The problem is, They make a plan or say they will do a certain procedure and try to do something else. When...
