What Is Williams Syndrome?
5. Learning Disorders
In addition to physical the disorders mentioned, the patient is also likely to suffer from learning disorders, and the severity of the symptoms will vary from patient to patient. Those with more severe learning disorders are likely to be independent on carers and parents for the rest of their lives.
Learning disorders can also contribute to delays in learning how to speak, and this can mean it is harder for them to communicate with other people. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is another potential symptom. This condition causes symptoms including poor planning ability, a short temper, impulsiveness, mood swings, and restlessness.
