What you're describing is hypercusis, which is noted (IIRC) in the Canadian criteria as one effect of the CNS damage done by ME. I'm a bit more than slightly affected by it myself. Basically, what happens is that most of us have developed neurological filters that allow our brains to prioritize incoming sound. You can sit in a restaurant, and zero in on the sound of your lunch companion, while tuning out the voices of nearby diners, the clink of china, the whooshing of the air conditioner, and other non- important noise. If your filters are working right, you don't even notice these distractions. ME attacks the part of the middle and lower brain where these filters live, and can erode the finely-tuned and well-adapted nerves that serve this function. It is, however, not the only cause of hypercusis. Some people are born with this problem (my son is among them); it can be hereditary, so if you had it as a kid, odds are good you have a parent or grandparent with it as well (my dad had it, too). Hypercusis is the leading feature of central auditory processing disorder (CAPD), which is one of the main causes of dyslexia. Not everyone with hypercusis is dyslexic; but if you're dyslexic, there's a close to even chance you've got CAPD. There are a number of other cognitive processing problems that also go with it: CAPD sufferers may also have problems with sequencing (remembering things in order, or keeping track of a list), keeping their physical space organized, and/or remembering cause and effect relationships. You can see where these problems might get in the way of learning <g>. It's also very common for people to acquire CAPD as they age. Women undergoing menopause, in particular, may find themselves far more irritated by noise and less able to filter. This condition often responds to hormone replacement therapy (as do many ME-related issues in women). There are also auditory therapies that can help rebuild the filters. Not all audiologists know how to work with hypercusis or CAPD; even fewer offer auditory integration therapy. (My son's condition -- not just his hearing, but also the cognitive issues surrounding his dyslexia -- were greatly improved by AIT.) If this becomes a big enough problem, it may be worth looking into. Sara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you so much. I'm not dyslexic, but I've always had what I called " comprehension problems " when reading. Examples: All those nasty word problems in math classes; comparable things in physical sciences. I always wondered what was up with me, because they were my only pitfalls. Thank you again.

Translating images to words and back again can be a glitchy process; and that sequencing thing can get in the way of manipulating the data effectively once you've gotten it into symbol form. My brilliant, funny, charming, and incredibly inventive son had a very extreme case -- so bad it made him almost non-functional, despite his 140+ IQ. You couldn't tell him to go to his room and get three things; he'd have forgotten them all by the time he hit the top of the stairs. At eight, he only knew about a dozen letters of the alphabet reliably. This year, at 12, after about $50K of remediation (out of our own pocket -- like we needed *this* on top of my ME!), he's finally starting to read with some fluency, and write a bit as well...though there's still some confusion about the months of the year (*sigh*). Until very recently, anything that required memorizing facts in order was likely to stymie him. It's been hell...but this year, I think we're finally starting to get to the end of a very long tunnel. In fact, the kid who was too stupid for kindergarten is now in Grade 7, and on track to earn an International Baccalaureate diploma. Discovering and treating his CAPD was the key to it all. (We still can't take him into noisy restaurants, though.)

Someone else (off-list) had said she cried as a child at Fourth of July fireworks, and that reminded me that MY son had done that only worse. I took him one year--I think he was about 3--and he turned beet red in the face and screamed such bloody murder, at the sound of the first display going off, I had to get him out of the stadium as fast as possible, and everyone around us stared at me like I was torturing him or something. It was most strange--his response was so extreme. This started me thinking that maybe my son inherited a " sound thing " from me. And then I read your post above about your son. But my son didn't have those problems at all. He was even far ahead of everyone in his age group. In fact, by the time he was 6 or so, he read much faster than I. (Of course, I have the " reading comprehension " problem.) But how could he excel so much (and he did, all through school, when he decided to do it--a whiz, just brilliant), if there was this sound sensitivity there from the beginning? There seems to be more in the mix. Or maybe his " sound thing " wasn't the same as my " sound thing. " Or something!....

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 Here's a label info. It includes the necessary cofactors, cost is $7.79 P-5-P, Now Foods, 50 mg., 60 Tablets • Coenzym B6 • Enteric Coated with Magnesium and B2 Cofactors • A Dietary Supplement Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) acts primarily as an enzyme catalyst in many body functions including energy metabolism, neurotransmitter functions. Before it can be used for this purpose it must be converted into its coenzyme form from the liver. P-5-P eliminates this step by providing B6 in its converted form, allowing for greater bioavailability. This product is enterically coated to avoid potency loss during digestion.

Hypercusis manifests in a lot of different ways, not all of which are CAPD. And CAPD also has a lot of permutations, not all of which include dyslexia. (There are a lot of people in my family with hypercusis, and quite a few with strong symptoms of CAPD. But my son is the only dyslexic in the bunch.)
