Has anyone ever had a neuro pysch test? After I had a seizure I was hospitalized for a week and they gave me an 8 hour neuro psych test, which I believed was a partial IQ test, as well. I didnt' score very high as my brain was fried. The doctor basically made fun of me as I thought I would be scored as learning disabled or something and laughed it off. However....when I got my results, he made fun of me even more so, stating that I scored very low on all portions. I wrote him a letter and THEN he called me and said "I guess my numbers were alot lower than you deserved" and the test is moot. He wants to retest me! I think he is a friggin quack. My score was deemed higher once he saw I could put a sentence 2gether so now he wants to put me thru hell and get more money! HELL NO! He sent me literature on "a lazy mind" and exercises I should do! I donot have a lazy mind! I work full time, I read for pleasure and he thinks this is
all psychological!

Julie Hope,
I know what you mean I am glad the doctor's can give us a direction on what maybe causing us problems or where to go for help but I hate it when they push pills, tests & operations that are not needed on us like we are still lab rats, totally pisses me off. And no matter how much training, practice they have one never trully knows another human's body 100% (sorry my honest opinion). In fact, no one trully understands what one goes thru before, during & after a seizure unless they actually have one themselves.
