[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 24133, member: 2423"] Just to clarify the testing issue, what you are looking for is a neuropsychological evaluation by a neuropsychologist (psychologist who has extra training in the congnitive and psychological functioning of the brain). Psychiatrists don't do this type of testing, but can refer to neuropsychologists they know and trust. In the large metropolitan area where we live, a good neuropsychological evaluation will run between $2200 and $2800 (may be partially covered by insurance), not the $6000 you were quoted. It's still expensive, but well worth it for attaining a differential diagnosis and for mapping a meaningful course of interventions. [/QUOTE]
