Default Got my neurophyc test results today.....

I finally got my Dr. to send me for a neurophyc test almost a year and half after my accident. The Dr. giving the test said that I fell through the cracks of the system.

I will get a copy of the official report in a week but I met with the neurophyc Dr. today.

Because I am "above average" in intellegence I still test in the 91% of my peer group after a brain injury. The areas I scored low in were still slightly above averaged or average.

I was told that along with some rehab therapy I mainly need counseling to axcept that I am intellegent I'm just slower. Because I test so high in my peer group I am more aware of the changes my injury has caused and there for very fustrated by them.

I also am depressed- you think!! It has taken this long to get a test that I should have taken a month after my accident, but my dr.s dropped the ball. I lost my job and house.

Once I except that this is who I am and what I am capable of now I wont be depressed. I don't want to except I just want to be fixed.

Is this test reliable? After taking it I slept for 2 days! And you take it in a quiet room with only one person talking. How does this measure or show the meltdown that happens when over stemmulated?
