Is There A Treatment For Discalculia?

Hello doctor! I m from Mangalore. I myself without consulting any neurologist came to know that i m suffering from Discalculia. I am very weak in mathematics. I even cant perform simple arithmetic problems. Few weeks back i googled my problem and i was directed to wikipedia. There i saw many symptoms of discalculia are matching! I sat in meditation and when i felt deep silence within me i gave some simple arithmetic problems to myself. I felt heaviness on certain portion of my brain. I m good in science and computer science but facing trouble in maths. I m very interested in my own problem and i did lots research on this topic. What i should do? Is there any treatment for this kind of problem? I m absent minded and facing short term memory problem. Please i need your suggestion doctor. I m very much upset :(

Hi,

Difficulty in calculation may arise due to many reasons. Stress bring the most common offender. In elderly, it may arise as a result of clot in the brain. Getting an MRI BRAIN scan is not a bad idea. Please stay stress free, take proper sleep, address one question at a time without worrying about your intelligence or ability to do calculation.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Abhishek Juneja, Neurologist
