I am about to have my first appt regarding an aspergers diagnosis next month, even though I'm quite sure I am on the spectrum.
Something has been bothering me for a while though. Since I was a child, I have suffered from tinnitus in one ear, thanks to a number of ear infections and a perforated ear drum, plus lots of loud music. The constant whine is very annoying.
I wonder if it in any way exacerbates the problems I suffer from, such as not being able to concentrate on conversations, unable to process information etc.
I don't know whether or not to mention this at my appointment as I don't want them to get distracted by it, if in fact it isn't relevant. I could wait many many months for an another appointment....
What do you all think?
