Long term memories are not usually lost long after an injury. As Mokey said, you are likely under too much stress when you try to remember. You need to learn some memory recall techniques. The stop to think is the first. You friend may be speaking too much. You may have too much background noise. These can all be temporary conditions. You may be struggling with a medication. Benzos are know to cause memory problems. Sleep can also effect memory.

So, relax, stay away from the Strip and beer. But, I don't think I need to tell you that. I am not surprised the NP did not respond to your claim about over-stimulation. That is not something they can measure, just like long term memory so they don't have evidence to convince them. Both of my NP's did not understand over-stimulation issues. One was even in disbelief when I complained about the leaf blower outside the window and the wall of plaques behind his desk.

NP's just interpret the test results with their personal biases included.

You will be fine without their accurate reports.

My best to you.
