Have you heard of Profound Impact Day?
It is all about people with profound and multiple
learning
disabilities

Losing friends because of behavior - help!
My 10-year-old son has ADHD, ODD and several
learning
disabilities
, including dyslexia, which has made school a struggle for him. (I believe his self-esteem is an issue as well.) He is currently having problems with two other friends in his classroom.

However this became much worse around Christmas last year - when I was going out and really not understanding a word people were saying - I could tell they

I’ve never had tinnitus before. I had a brain tumour removed Jan 16 and have had lots of MRI scans. High pitched ringing started mainly in left ear in January this year. Driving me nuts!! I’ve been to GP who referred me to ENT. Had hearing test (bit low) so now waiting for hearing aids and appointment

ENT wants to see me again after MRI
Hello everyone, I started getting tinnitus in my left ear about 7 months ago. I saw a GP, I had impacted earwax so a nurse removed it about a month later. The tinnitus didn't go away so I saw another GP who referred me to an ENT who sent to see an Audiologist for a hearing test and for an MRI that I

Is it a fungal infection? I'm new here
I have been fighting ear pain for 4 or 5 years. Every doc I have gone to says "I see nothing." There IS something! It is like 3 or 4 on the pain level. Then, 2 years ago, just when I had an appointment with an ENT, I started a painful white patch along the side of my tongue. He did two biopsies on my

Idiopathic Pulsatile Tinnitus
Hi, I am Gwynydd and I posted some five months ago. To recap I have had an MRI and A CT scan which revealed nothing abnormal. I am being checked for any heart related issues and now referred to the head and neck clinic. Due to my consultant not copying me on the CT scan result and my Doctor not doing

Work and living with a lung condition
I work as a support worker for adults with
learning
disabilities
and at present my condition does not affect my work. I have not had any time off because of it. I am going for an interview tomorrow for a job in the same sector but working with more profoundly disabled people.

Tinnitus after ear infection (seven months). Any chance it will go?
Hi :D My tinnitus started about seven months ago when I had an ear infection. It has reduced a lot since then but is definitely still there, and pretty annoying! It's only in one ear, and most of the hearing tests I've had have come up 'normal' in both ears. Does anyone know if after this long it can

Wiped out by PIP visit
I had my PIP visit yesterday. The lady who came was nice. However all those questions about what I can't do and chat about what I used to do has left me drained and weepy. It's brought back all the feelings of mourning for my previous life. The deep depression of being useless, on the scrap heap.
