Need a little Help

Ok, here's the deal.  Now that I have some of my health issues under control, I'm curious to see how much prior illnesses have contributed to them.  When I was about 4 months old, I had Haemophilus Influenzae type B (HIB).  Along with that I had meningitis, an ear infection and at one point a fever of 107.4.  In all the online research I have done on HIB, it just gives information about the vaccine.  That's not what I need to know!!!  The only information I have found on HIB was in a home medical reference book a few years ago.  It said most cases of Haemophilus have secondary meningitis.  There are cases that another infection was involved but I didn't look into them much, but there wasn't much information about any of it at all!!!

The only information other than that that I said above, is fact sheets to scare parents into getting their infant vaccinated for HIB.

I'm looking for this information to figure out if this is where some of my health problems stem from. 

I'll just write a little about the effects that I have a feeling that had been caused by the HIB, meningitis and 107.4 fever.

Central Auditory Processing Disorder
Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD or APD) is tough to diagnose.  I wasn't diagnosed until I was 25.  It is a hearing/communicating/learning disorder.  Even at 29 years old, I have a hard time hearing people especially on the phone.  If you don't look directly at me when you are speaking, I totally misunderstand what you are saying.  With this disorder, something in the nerves of the ear and/or brain are not functioning properly.  It makes memorization very difficult, as reading comprehending or just comprehension as a whole.  Funny story (although my mom might not think so), the family was at my sister's this past Sunday afternoon.  My sister, mom, niece, my sister's mother-in-law and I were in the kitchen.  I was standing near her dining table and I heard mom say something.  To me it sounding like my mother had said "sniff my butt."  Anyone who knows Momma knows this wouldn't be something my mother would ever say!  I was told what she had said, but I forgot.


Any way, I don't know everyone who reads this blog personally.  That's why I posted it.  I'm desperate for answers and don't know where to even start looking.  HIB is practically gone, like measles and polio.  I just want to find out if this is some of the brain damage that they use on the fact sheets to scare the parents of infants or if there's more to it.

Thank you!!
