I'm sorry the testing was so hard on you, Deb.

I don't think I've ever had a neuro-psych testing. If I did, I wasn't aware of it. My neuro does the finger strength testing, the key-to-the-bottom-of-the-foot test (I cannot think of the proper name for that test), he makes me look at different colored pictures of numbers to see if I can decipher what number is highlighted. He makes me close my eyes and try to touch my nose. But that's just during a routine visit. I've never had a specific appointment for this kind of testing.

It would be nice to know how I'm cognitively doing. Some days I can really tell that I'm struggling. Others I feel relatively normal (whatever that is).

I think you and Trisha are the only two I've read about having specific neuro-psych testing. I'm wondering if I should have it done? It'll have to wait till I'm on Medicare, though.
