I distinctly remember being asked about sensory issues on a questionnaire for assessment - but they specifically asked "does the tag in your shirt bother you". I said "no" because my shirts don't have tags. Of course the nonexistent tag doesn't bother me. Oops, I took the question too literally lol. I still think about that to this day.

The people who designed the questionnaire should have worded the question better such as "Have tags in shirts ever bothered you?"
