The hitting thing, and not caring about what's going on around him sounds like an impulse control issue. Well actually, they all sound like impulse control issues now that I think about it.

I would definately bring up all of these concerns to the doctor, particularly the noise sensitivity.
Thank you for that insight. I cannot wait to get him to the Dr. I know that having him re-diagnosed is going to get us a clearer picture of what is really going on.
Impulse control, why didn't I think of that!
I am going to talk to my T and see if I can get him into see her for now.
