Based on the available search results, there is no specific information about the FRAT test or experiences from MyAutismTeam members with this test. However, genetic testing in general is something that many families pursue for autism diagnosis and understanding.

If you're interested in genetic testing, it's recommended to discuss the specific test and its potential benefits with your healthcare provider. They can explain what the test involves and help determine if it would be beneficial in your situation. When considering any new test or evaluation, remember that each person with autism is unique. What works for one person may not work for another. It's important to work closely with your healthcare team to determine the most appropriate testing and treatment approach for your specific situation.
