Default Neuropsych Testing Summary Back

Hi All,

Well I have the summary. It was sent to my neurologist for my appt with him but I won't have the final report with full explanation til this Sat. I'm not clear on all the info.

It's like having your first review at your grown up job but much worse because it's your core being being evaluated. Trying to read the summary brought out a lot of emotions.

I haven't worked so hard for 25 years to accept how things are now. Having it on paper is opening emotions I thought I was further along with.

Low average perceptual problem solving 21 points below verbal abilities

Auditory working memory average with borderline visual working memory

Remainder of memory indices low average range

Verbal fluency high average letters and categories but average when alternating sets

Verbal conceptualization average to high average

Visual motor speed for scanning and sequencing was severely impaired due to slowness, speed when tracing lines was average

Two functional tests showed adequate effort

Overall intellectual functioning was average, far below expectations based on educational level

Any clarifications would be great.

Jace
