Default Neurocognitive Testing---Nervous!

As requested by my lawyer, I am being seen tomorrow by our city's university concussion clinic tomorrow morning.

When I made the appt, the secretary told me that the first 45 minutes would be on a computer doing neurocognitive testing and then the last 15 minutes were a consult with the Dr. to go over the test results and to address current symptoms. She also warned there is a good chance the test will aggrivate my symptoms.

I have never had anything like this done and am wondering what it entails.

I have no idea what to expect. After 5 months of PCS, I know that they are not going to be able to "fix" me, but am hoping that they can at least provide some relief and make me feel like I'm not crazy for having the symptoms I do.

Anybody ever had any of this kind of testing done? Hearing someone elses experience would be helpful, because I'm very anxious...
