I haven't been seen by a Neuropsychologist. Maybe I should. How are you doing? Did you get an appointment with the neuro in Denver?Sharon I was trying to daydream, but my mind kept wandering. Neuropsychologist

Hello everyone! I have been so busy lately. My MIL has been visiting from Chicago since Wednesday. She goes home this afternoon. I just finished reading a wonderfully informative book. Facing the Cognitive Challenges of Multiple Sclerosis by Jeffery N. Gingold. Anyway, it has been about 3yrs since my Dx & I've noticed these types of changes in me in the last 2yrs. I am going to make an appt with a neuropsychologist to have cognitive testing done. Has anyone else had this done? E. Colorado Check out the new AOL.

Yes, I saw a neuropsych this past Feb. It is an exhausting battery of tests. I think I was there the entire day from like 9 am to 4pm, with a break for lunch. Memory tests, sequencing, spatial relation type testing, I forget them all. My neurologist is thinking I should perhaps go on Aricept--that is what my dad is on for his Alzheimer's--I do NOT want to be on anymore meds! Besides, how do i know for certain that the meds I'm on aren't affecting my cognition? Just make certain you have gotten a really good night's sleep the night before you go for the tests.

I hope all goes well with your appt. And than you for giving us the name of this book. I'm going to see if I can find it myself. I think right now I could probably benefit from it.

Hope you enjoyed the visit with your MIL.

Blessed be....

I see the neuropsychologist on Jan 3rd & the neuro on Jan 9th.

They are both in Denver. I talked with the women in my support group

here in town & they said they had better results from Drs in

Denver. We are in the middle of a blizzard today. The airports have

shut down. Thank God this happpened after my MIL went home!! I think

the stress of her being here flared up a bunch of symptoms. I have

slurred my words & when I'm not doing that I am word switching

constantly. Sometimes I catch it & other times people tell me. Then

last night I was watching TV & my arms got really cold feeling

& then some tingling & then numbness. I woke up this morning

& it was better but my left arm is still weak.

It's a psychologist that specializes in

neurological disorders that effect the brain function. He told me the

testing would be about 4 to 5 hours. I highly doubt that I will score

very well on the testing.

You sound stessed. With all the commotion and this time of year, that's not too surprising. I think stress really is a highly contributing factor in relapses. I hope all goes well with your Dr.'s appt. I have an appt. with a neurologist on the 3rd. Myself. I think I'm going to (while I'm there) see about making an appt. with a neuropsychologist. At this point, I don't think it could hurt.

Sure hope you don't get snowed in yourself. Living here, in NC., it's still sunny and somewhat warm. I just can't believe how snowy it is out west. I'm originally from Idaho. It's been so long since I've been there, I've forgotten what winters can be like. I sure do miss it.

I do crossword puzzles all the time & play my Scrabble

game on the computer. I feel alot better doing that. I do have days

though where I feel really foggy & don't even attempt to do them.

I've read that doing crosswords or things of that nature help exercise

your brain function.

Re: Neuropsychologist

My major problems right now are cognitive. I had the neuropsych test

done last year (expensive test for me doing all the work :) It was

interesting to see how my brain played out. I also learned how

impaired my dexterity has become. I had a lot of problems putting

the little pegs in the holes.

This is going to sound incredibly boastful...so NOT humble. But it's

a terrible blow to the ego to learn you are not so smart anymore.

Even my best scores were just "average". I have never been average

in memory associated learning. Gosh, I was the a runner up in the

state spelling bee at 14. 23 years later, spellcheck is my best

friend. I have a great case for disability since my degree is in

accounting and I've worked all these years with numbers and now can't

even balance my checkbook.

This is why I think we should start an MS online game playing group.

Playing games like scrabble, or soduko really help me. Or at least

they make me feel better and give me something to do at 1am and I can

give my hubby the excuse "I'm fighting my MS". Ha!

> Hello everyone! I have been so busy lately. My MIL has been

visiting from Chicago since Wednesday. She goes home this afternoon.

I just finished reading a wonderfully informative book. Facing the

Cognitive Challenges of Multiple Sclerosis by Jeffery N. Gingold.

Anyway, it has been about 3yrs since my Dx & I've noticed these types

of changes in me in the last 2yrs. I am going to make an appt with a

neuropsychologist to have cognitive testing done. Has anyone else had

this done?

I know...I had lost 20 IQ points. I was 136 in school and now am in the normal range at 116. It definitely showed the changes 'mindythores wrote: My major problems right now are cognitive. I had the neuropsych test done last year (expensive test for me doing all the work :) It was interesting to see how my brain played out. I also learned how impaired my dexterity has become. I had a lot of problems putting the little pegs in the

holes.This is going to sound incredibly boastful...so NOT humble. But it's a terrible blow to the ego to learn you are not so smart anymore. Even my best scores were just "average". I have never been average in memory associated learning. Gosh, I was the a runner up in the state spelling bee at 14. 23 years later, spellcheck is my best friend. I have a great case for disability since my degree is in accounting and I've worked all these years with numbers and now can't even balance my checkbook. This is why I think we should start an MS online game playing group. Playing games like scrabble, or soduko really help me. Or at least they make me feel better and give me something to do at 1am and I can give my hubby the excuse "I'm fighting my MS". Ha!Mindy> > > > > Hello everyone! I have been so busy lately.

I do have days though where I feel really foggy & don't even attempt to do them. I've read that doing crosswords or things of that nature

help exercise your brain function. E.Colorado Re: Neuropsychologist My major problems right now are cognitive.
