Thanks for your post.
You can possibly receive accommodations when taking the GED. You should contact your local testing center and ask for the forms needed to request accommodations. They will let you know what forms need to be completed and what documentation you will need.
You can receive accommodations based on your specific needs. Some examples of accommodations are:
Audiocassette edition (with large-print reference copy)
Large print edition
Extended time
Using a scribe during the testing
Using a talking calculator or abacus
Supervised frequent breaks
Taking the test in a private room
This may make the GED a little easier for you.
Good luck and let us know how you do!
