After a Long Covid diagnosis last year, my treatment team ordered neuropsychological testing to better understand my current cognitive function. Will the results shock me — or make perfect sense?
Having had a brain injury 5 years ago I can say that I’ve had 2 neuropsychological tests along with a battery of occupational testing, ADHD testing and other tests. What I’ve learned is that each professional treats them and interprets them differently and that you will perform differently each time. Hoping you get some much needed answers.
I was prescribed Ritalin for chemo-induced fatigue; and it worked so well that I’m wondering if I have undiagnosed ADD? (And honestly, is there anyone in the creative world who isn’t wondering the same thing?) I’ve also been curious about what is the result of chemo vs menopause vs maybe-ADD. So curious what you’ll find!
My 80 year old mom is actually headed into a day of neurological tests next week. She’s starting to show signs of cognitive decline and we want to get a measurable baseline. It’s scary, sad, and fraught with uncertainty, though she seems much more amenable to it than my brother and me!
Great description of ADD/Inattentive type. I got bills paid on time, but my poor working memory is a killer. Haven’t had the neuropsych battery- I’m intrigued with what you’ll find out and wish you the best

Wishing you the best. I hope it went ok yesterday
