This Ontario woman with autism, ADHD says she was misdiagnosed for decades and is now calling for change
by from CBC | Edmonton News on (#6JJC1)
A Thunder Bay, Ont., woman says it took decades for her to finally get diagnosed with ADHD and autism "because people at that time really didn't even consider the possibility that girls could have autism." Researchers and advocates say that scenario isn't uncommon in medicine, in part because of the gender gap in brain research.
