[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 272850, member: 84"] Janet I think this lady was a dufus. Odds are.....she didn't recognize some of the medical terminology you were using. I'm serious. I do think you intimidated her. Money can still drive me crazy at times. And I have good days and bad days with words. Bad days and I can't think of what I want to say for anything. Drives me nuts. Good days......probably ranges in with others in our age group. But most of the time it happens out of the blue. Don't ask me something and expect an instant answer...unless it's OLD knowledge. Like tonight, instructor asked what paints I was using in my painting. Now I'd just mixed the darn paints. But what they were wouldn't come to my brain for anything. Good thing I had the names of the paints written on my pallet. sheesh He asked too fast and my brain went on shut down. Taking a test.........sweety I can do fine. I know I'm taking it. Spring a pop quiz on me and watch me flunk it, even if I know the material. My brain shuts down. poof! Sometimes I can manage to pass if I force myself to sit there and let it come to me. This can take up to 15 mins.......sometimes it just doesn't. And I've had 5 yrs to improve, with school forcing me to get better. Travis' first neuropsychologist testing was waaaay off the mark. The only thing the guy picked up on was his tics. Second one we got was MUCH better, and they pin pointed just about all the problem areas he had, while noting that several others might be displayed more severely in the real world. I'm thinking if you can get it, a 2nd opinion would do you much more good than this one. Hugs [/QUOTE]
