Coffeegirl, do you also post on an MS forum? There my handle is "newlyb12def."

I had a neuropsych exam done recently. I requested it. I know I have cog. problems, and wasn't surprised by the doc's summary. But I got a copy of the whole report, including an assessment of different functions with ratings. I felt so dejected after seeing how low I rated/scored at certain functions.

I'm trying to focus on my strengths from the report. Basically, the doc found that my cog. problems were due to MS but made worse by fatigue/depression/anxiety. The good news is the things I excelled at are not expected to get worse over time.

You always have friends here. I've found everyone here to be very understanding and supportive. If misunderstandings arise, don't be afraid to clear things up. It's easy to misunderstand the written word, because we can't rely on facial expressions or body language.

((((HUGS)))
