Autism and dizzy balance problems

Dizziness can be an ear problem, nothing to do with autism.  Alternatively, yes indeed, your sensory profile might mean that your balance and or proprioception can be affected. I used to get really dizzy going up and down stairs as a kid.  I was frightened and used to shuffle down on my bottom.

I've toppled over and fell, numerous times But i don't thimk it's anything to do with me being autistic, I have Hypothyroidism, I'd never even heard of it. But the nurse in the hospital said your thyroids control just about every organ in your body, head-to-toe. I've just been given a certificate which declares me partially sighted. Both the RNIB and the Social Services who have helped with adaptations here at my home. Both say i should get a carer. But this is where the autism comes in. For the moment at least, i'd rather struggle than have someone coming into my house.
