PPL and numbers

Hi,

I have always wanted to learn to fly, and recently I have been looking into gaining a Helicopter Private Pilots License. However, I have recently been diagnosed with dyscalculia. Dyscalculia is (also called math disability or numlexia) is a specific learning disability involving innate difficulty in learning or comprehending arithmetic. This means that sometimes I will say numbers which are not there or miss numbers. I take this would seriously hamper my ability in gaining a license, however my question, what would you advise I do?

I have emailed the CAA but not received any reply as of yet.
