Confused Neuropsychologist

Today I had another appointment with my Neurologist. He wants me to see a Neuropsychologist for testing to see "how bad the dyslexia, memory, and other symptoms are, and to see if they are related to the concussion or psychological". He also said that if I felt like I needed "more help" I could continue to see the Neuropsychologist.

Have any of you seen a Neuropsychologist? What was it like? Did they think it was just 'all in your head' or did they take your symptoms seriously?

He also wants me to have an EEG and see a Cardiologist. Has anyone had an EEG? Did it show anything or come back clean like every other test?

I am not sure I agree with my Dr's decision to send me to a Cardio. I passed out 12hrs after my injury, and then again a month after. It has been over a month since the last time I passed out with no problems with it since. Before my injury I never passed out or fainted, which leads me to believe that it was related to the injury, however my Dr believes that it is unrelated to the concussion and is a Cardio issue instead.

Whats your opinion on all of this? Does anyone have any experience with these Drs or tests?

Thanks guys.
