I agree with this cautioun Diana. I can count on one hand the amount of times I have disclosed actual diagnosis and don't believe that information is needed for management to understand why adjustments are needed. IMHO they need to know/understand the symptoms impact on function e.g pain affecting concentration causing a slower work pace and increased need to recheck work for errors.
