Hi all
I am going in for Neuropshychological testing on Tuesday as ordered by my neurologist. They said it will take all day. This is also a work. comp. case, so they will be getting the results. I am nervous because I feel like most of my cognitive skills are in tact, but I get exhausted easily from using my brain and cannot handle a heavy, demanding work load like I used to. I can go about 2 hours, and that is it. I used to work an 8 hour day at a physically and mentally demanding job, then go home and do house/garden work, then do a heavy work out and then cook dinner, etc... I can't last nearly as long now. So I feel like my skills are still there but my capacity is greatly diminished. Also, my physical symptoms of dizziness, lightheadedness, vision issues, vestibular issues, balance, etc... affect my cognitive abilities. Will the testing pick up on this? I am worried that if the results come back fine, then work. comp. will try to say that nothing is wrong with me. thank you for help. |
