Yep. I have light and sound sensitivity to the point I wear earplugs at work at all times, and I have certain sensitivities to textures (both food and touch). I'm grateful I don't have temperature sensitivities, although my lack of reaction to cold temps is its own problem.
What I mean by all this is everyone's sensitivities are different even if they can overlap with someone else's. My light sensitivity may be less or more severe than someone else but we still share the base of it.
