how do you know if you have fetal alcohol syndrome?

I want to know more about fetal alcohol syndrome because I think I might have many symptoms,I dont know how severe they have to be in order to be diagnosed with this. I never knew about FAS but as a kid I had a lot of trouble learning, and I dont know weather I didnt try in school because I had learning disabilities or because I am just that kind of person, not good at school, not gifted with learning.

I looked at the symptoms of fetal alcohol syndrome and I wonder sometimes if I might have it. I do have quite a few of the symptoms like trouble with concentration, poor memory sensitive with moods poor impulse control and poor judgment skills. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/fetal-alcohol-syndrome/symptoms-causes/syc-20352901

I found out from my dad's relatives that my mom drank during her pregnancy with me both in early stages and late stages and i was born very early had to be incubated and have a few physical in a sense deformations from premature birth. one of my legs is longer then the other and I have certain digestive issues.
if anyone knows anything about this let me know.

@Girlyfriendcollecting now I'm not sure where you live the in the States you walk into an emergency room and fall on the floor and then tell them what's going on. Then if you get charged pay it off in increments later
