Received my written results today from Neuropsych.....in a nutshell was told it's been 7 months and I should not be experiencing my symptoms this long.

Scored high on the tests sesitive to TBI and suboptimal effort on others (like I would purposly not try on the easy ones?) Said my cognitive deficits were most likely not caused by the injury....noted slow processing but told me to start driving again, and begin return to work.


Amazing all the inaccuracies in his report. Wish I even understood it all.

This was from a Workman's Comp Neuropsycologist who also works for my employer.....ya think I got a fair assessment?
