Hi Catch,
I'm a newbie here, but not new to MS. I agree with Sally. Neuro pysch testing would help your doctor (and you) evaluate your levels of cognitive dysfunction. Your doctor would use that report as your baseline.
In my experience, the cognitive dysfunction kept progressing. Neuro pysch testing documented my decline, but I chose more medication and kept working. That was a bad idea.
I realized that my situation was getting worse, so I created a cheat sheet to help me do my job correctly. When I had to read each line every single day, I knew I was in trouble. However, I stayed in denial.
Thankfully, one day my body just collapsed forcing me to go on disability. I hated the idea of not working, but it turned out to be the best thing that had ever happened to me.
After years of aggressive medication and many more years of TLC, my memory returned along with my dignity. What's more, I'm doing so well that I enrolled in college.
Do talk to your doctor about Neuro pysch testing. The sooner you address this, the better.
Who knows? Your situation might right itself quickly. Everyone is different.
I hope the best for you. Take care!
