Guest guest Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Neurologists ask you to stick out your tounge, tap knees and ask questions but usually do not do detailed neuropsychologicall testing. What is needed is formal neruopsychological testing. This takes at least an hour depending on the battery they use.It could well be useful to boost your confidence that everything is working well. If not that is important to know as well.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 And personality can be affected with frontal lobe. AND read about Phineas Gage too since we're on brain stuff. THAT one is a fun read too!

In I am turning on my headlights I know the Switch is on the left side but it is the right arm that moves to right side and turns on the wipers. Or typing I know I thinking I need to press the n key but instead I press the d key or something like that.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Lyme disease can cause the same brain lesion pattern as Multiple Sclerosis. That's why the two are often confused. If it is Lyme, with treatment, the lesions generally regress. I've seen a brain before and two years after.
