I've been to the neuro phyc's for an exam! He's gutta tally up my scores but he said that preliminary he can tell I've got some memory issues (go figure) but my reasoning skills were good! He did memory tests similar to the tests my neurologist give me and a couple different ones! He read me a short story then asked what I could remember about the story. Then he read another and asked what I can remember about that. Then I was shown some designs and he had some like blocks with all different parts of the original design and I had to match them up to look like the original design. I found my greatest problem in doing all the tests was my severe spastisody! I'd have to pick up the pieces and put them in like a tray of the image I was shown! This was extremely hard for me, trying to remember the design, then pick up the pieces and maneuver them in to the proper place! I was trying to picture the image in my mind while concentrating on picking up and placing them in the proper place! That was a very challenging test!
