Default Had another Neuropsychological testing session

Hi Guys,
Hope you are all holding up. I had another seizure on March 7th and I hurt my neck bad. The pain traveled down my neck into my right side and my right arm was paralyzed when I woke up in the morning on the 11th. Don't worry it is not really paralyzed but it hurt to move all day. So when I went for the Neuropsychological testing on the 11th they did not want to do too much with me because I was already in so much pain. I did manage to get her to tell me that she sees the problem and will be helpful to me with my disability claim. She wants me to come back again before she will give me the report and recommendations for future treatment. I did manage to get a new disability claim filed. I will have to send her report in later. I go back to my regular doctor on Thursday so I guess I will find out what a 3mm area of brain getting no signals on my MRI means. I am sure nothing good. I am really thinking that I have the more serious post concussive encephalitis or whatever it is when your brain has sustained maximum blows. I have passed out and fell straight back on concrete like 8-9 times (supposedly due to hypoglycemia) and was hurt even before I took the killing blow in 2006 in the car accident. I have had my entire short and long term memory wiped. I don't know how I have survived to this point. I hope there is help for me guys. I am feeling really down.
