Default Neuropyschological testing

Anyone know how I can get these test for cognitive problems. Thus far I have not had much luck. If insurance won't cover it, then it's out of the question. I've been given an oral test by an intern but he said I did fine. When asked what season it was I went blank, totally blank. Then I said, "fall" feeling like I needed an answer. This was in late April. My wife told me she was dumbfounded when she heard that. I have been trying to get the point of cognitive problems across for a long time and so far no takers except for my vestibular therapist. There are so many daily things that go on. I know prior to my problems like most we all have experienced trying to put the milk in the cabinet thing. I'm talking about every day decisons, simple decisions or actions. An example is spelling, always pretty good, not longer. I have to study words or stop and think when it was instinctive.Others around don't see these problems especially since most of it isn't a shared sort of thinking. I had a profession which paid my bills but my joy came from being a diy guy and a woodturner. The artistic thoughts are not there and the layout constructive thoughts have gone on hiatus. I don't believe depression is the problem. This is just flat thinking.....
Thanks,
Mike
