I am nearly 4 years post surgery, and am going through vocational
rehabilitation right now. My counselor brought up that she was
surprised I had never been referred to have neuropsych treatment. Not
just testing but ongoing treatment to help me through the process of
having surgery and what that causes emotionally due to physical
changes. In addition, she was also surprised when I told her I was
never sent to an occupational therapist for my memory and concentration,
or a speech therapist to help with communication. She said speech
therapy is badly named, and should be called communication therapy
because it helps people learn how to communicate properly/better/again.
For those of you who have an LTL or RTL, were you referred to any of
these after surgery?
