Testing for Dyslexia
 
Hi there
I was diagnosed dyslexic, many years ago, have
largely learned
to live with it by now (I am 34 yo and have a BA)
Having gotten back to
dealing Ham Radio, I am back to dealing with Morse
to at least recieve
a bit of and to docment today, my dyslexia, which
would allow both
various changes in the Testing requirements. I
need refences to to
help point my doctor ( an allergist) toward a test
or three that would
support the fact that I still have dyslyexia today
(FCC dysbility
requierments don't seem to realize that some
things really don't get
much better with time) Idealy one that will lend
some support to the
idea that I still have it, but are not too
expensive to for him to
order given to me

There are no tests your allergist could use.

If you want the question answered, you need to go see a licensed
psychologist or licensed school psychologist. "licensed" is key.

Not awfully expensive, and should get you good answers.

Yes, they are.

And I might add that CARD XII's suggestion of a "psychologist" for
your problems was al ill-informed as your attempt to use an
"allergist".

Had you taken my advice years ago and followed-up with a
NEUROLOGIST you might have already been an Extra or General.

Yes, they are...And CARD XII's suggestion of a "psychologist" was
as ill-informed as YOUR initial discussions about your

Perhaps if you'd followed up with a NEUROLOGIST as I had suggested
years ago, you'd have your General or Extra by now...

It doesn't matter...

Your "allergist's" opinion wouldn't have held water, and "CARD
XII's" suggestions of a psychologist was equally incorrect.

Now...Had your followed up with a NEUROLOGIST as I had suggested
years ago, you might have your General or Extra today.....

That would not be correct. There have been no waivers allowed for the basic
5wpm. The only waivers that existed were for the 13wpm & 20wpm. Or do you
mean that the neurologist could have advised him on training and testing
approaches to learn and pass the 5wpm?

That would not be correct.


That would "not be correct" under the current rules, Dee. However
the re-posting from Markie was from several years ago. In that context
it was originally made, it was...

No, I meant that he could have gotten past all of that over 5
years ago had he done what was suggested. Markie was correct in his
statement that someone reposted one of his old posts.

I'm still confused. You seem to be saying that he could have gotten a
waiver for the 5wpm if he had done it years ago. That is not true. There
has never been a waiver for the lowest speed. He still would have had to
pass the 5wpm level to get any waiver.

Testing for Dyslexia...An Apology
 
I tried to post to Google this morning and kept getting a "Server
Error" message...I "assumed" that my previous posts had not been
posted, but judging by the several posts of similar wording, I was
wrong...

Sorry for the multiple similar posts....

well you got that right

you are confused and then you go babbling on about whatyou don't
bother to understand

i could tried getting some pretty extreme accomodation which no one is
willing to DISCUSS without proof, then waiver

and then you ignore Stevie and continue to babble when in strange
brust of fairness he points out the repost has been without context

you have said others should bother to understand before they post \

take your advice

Wake up, Blockhead.

We were talking about your alleged inability to "hear" Morse
Code....It had NOTHING to due with your alleged dyslexia.

Hmmmmmmmmm....What to do with my free time...Travel, maybe...?!?!

It wasn't "medical advice"..."Medical advice" is preparing and
implementing a care plan with PRESCRIBED diagnostics, thereapies,
treatment or medicines. Even suggesting a dose of Tylenol can, under
certain review, be considered "medical advice" although Tylenol is an
OTC medication.

I suggested you see a neurologist. You chose not to do so.
That's a very clearly authorized NURSING function.
