Guest guest Posted July 25, 2006 Report Posted July 25, 2006 test of everyday attention is mainstream, even paid by medicare I think This was prescribed by a physiatrist, who is NOT a psychiatrist, but rather is a rehab dr, for people wiht strokes, car accidents, brain injurys, and other bodyily injuries. I call them a pain and brain dr. She knows and believes in cfids and fibro. she referred me for PT, vision therapy (from brain toxic stuff, I think the cfids visual stuff would fit here too), and also test of everyday attention. All these therapies were done at a rehab center like where stroke people and accident people go. The test of E very day attention was administered by a SPEECH therapist.yes seems very strange. Vision thereapy was done by a OCCUPATIONAL thereapist. prior to vision therapy I was sent to a Neuro opthomistrist. His notes are also useful documents stating it looks like TBI, or traumatic brain injury.he states it was very hard to vision test me due to attention problems yes, my diagnosis are all infections, cfids, fibro, mold, toxic root canal, mycoplasma so havning someone saying TBI is agreat step in documenting. TBI is used for accident type brain injury, but saying I have those type of cognitive problems is great on paper. TEST OF EVERYDAY ATTENTION showed 95 % for some things and 1%tile (ABSOLUTE lowest) for other things like short term memory or sustained attention wiht interruptions. I suggest this testfor anybody as a good document, even if you cannot prove you are sick /cannot diagnose your infection , this will help show you cannot think normal., and cannot work. with just cfids diagnosis I was able to get support from a brain injury advocate place.(also wiht brainSPECT scan result) amy > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >INFECTION AND INFLAMMATION > > > > > > INFECTION AND INFLAMMATION > > > Messages In This Digest (9 > Messages) > > > > > 1a. > > Re: The Gut > From: > dumbaussie2000 > 1b. > > Re: The Gut > From: > dumbaussie2000 > 1c. > > Re: The Gut > From: > Jaep > 1d. > > Re: The Gut > From: > Penny Houle > > > 2a. > > sandy /brain > From: > amy dent > 2b. > > Re: sandy /brain > From: > Jaep > 2c. > > Re: sandy /brain > From: > Penny Houle > > > 3. > > Re: Unapproved Lyme disease treatment harmful, FDA warns > From: > > > > 4. > > Re: , Diagnosic tests > From: > > > > > View All Topics | Create New Topic > > > Messages > > > > 1a. > > > > Re: The Gut > > Posted by: " dumbaussie2000 " > dumbaussie2000@... > > > dumbaussie2000 > > > > Sun Jul 23, 2006 6:33 pm (PST) > > > > > > > > > > It makes me wonder if this is an overreaction , we all want safe > >drugs , but > > > is there such a thing?
