What Causes Sudden Seizure Like Body Stiffness In Child Diagnosed With Autism?
Visit another pediatrician and get him evaluated
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
If you think that the child is having seizures, you should get him assessed by a doctor. An EEG can be done to make things clearer.
For assessment of autism, the first step is to answer questions from the m-chat checklist.

If this caregiver answered questionnaire indicates a high probability, all you need to do is to mention it to your pediatrician and he will indicate the things to be done. You may ask him for details and he should explain. I do not think that you need to be specific.
Hope that helps.
