I have spent an hour, with interuptions trying to understand what snoopy was refering to. I'm not challenging you Snoopy, just trying to understand myself.

Well, the whle thing blew away so I guess it was not worth the time and effort. I did want to ask if another Dr. was in this group.

neuro- surgeon

neuro-psychologist

neuro-psychiatrist

Snoopy, if I may ask, what are they treeting you for? If you don't want to answer that is ok.

I see all 3 of those except I never noticed a neuro in front of the psychiatrist or psychologist.

Inquiring minds want to know but is too tired to look up anything else.

Jo duh slow

Jo,

Feel free to challenge me I don't claim to have all the right answers

I see a Psychiatrist for therapy and meds....she is not a neuropsych.

My daughter as had testing with a psychologist and meds thru Psychiatrist.

As a person with MS I am very aware of neuropsych...many with MS go thru neuropsych testing altho' I never have and at this point I have no interest in doing so.

I have not had any personal experience with a neuropsych but I like to read.

If I am wrong on anything I have posted feel free to point it out....I can take it.

The neuro psychologist I saw after my shunt revision ran me through a battery of tests to determine cognitive deficits. He checked memory, hand/eye co-ordination, association skills, and other skills I would need to return to my job and life as I knew it. He was not there to resolve any pre-existing psychiatric disorders (God knows that would have taken way too much time). He then forwarded the data to my neurologist, who discussed it with my wife and me. I hope this helps some.
