I had a full complement of neuropsych testing. I get the results tomorrow. I think this will be most helpful in providing medical documentation of the symptoms I have been experiencing & describing that may be somewhat subjective, such as "brain fog."

I also have an appointment with a PHYSIATRIST (physical medicine & rehab doctor) later this month. This is different from a PSYCHIATRIST (specialist in mental illness) whom I also see to help manage my depression.

I will keep you posted on what I learn as I go forward.
