Guest guest Posted August 22, 1999 Report Share Posted August 22, 1999 Hi Lea, I had the neuro psyche evaluation last December, my test took about 6 hours, we did take a break for lunch. There were many memory type tests (which I failed miserably) and working with blocks and flash cards. I am sorry I just can't recall it all, although I can tell you it was painless, and kind of fun. The test results helped me get approved for SSDI.

It took us three months to get all the testing done as the Dr. was really booked up but it was worth it as all his deficiencies were documented as related to Lyme.

There is a good Dr. in Parsippany, if that is near you, right off route 80. His name is Freundlich. He did Mike. They like the before and after approach to see what medicines are working for all the studies and papers Fallon is doing. Yhe more positive info he gets the better off we all are. You will be amazed at the results. >> Sharon jus twondering if you could e-mail me privitely with the numbe rof that doctor mentioned ubove.

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 I think this would be great for us since the school doesn't seem able or willing to do the correct assessments to determine these weak areas. Do you go to the neuropsych telling them you already have a diagnosis of AS? Or do you let them do their own determination? Who writes the referal your chils ped or the child psychiatrist? > > > > > > My son is diagnosed aspie, age 8. what is the reasoning behind getting > > a neuropsych consult?
