What is the point of seeing a neuropsychologist?

Great answer!! I guess I just don't think it would have made any difference in his treatment. It's a bit like Tetris: fitting the piece that just dropped, into today's place in the puzzle and then waiting for the next piece to drop and dealing with that.

Thats fair.
Great question AND response.
My dr also suggested I see a neurologist. While it is needed for documenting the downhill trajectory of my illness, they already missed the years where value might have come as a result of seeing a neurologist.
By the time it’s suggested, that ship has sailed.
There’s nothing a neurologist can do for my condition.
With no official diagnosis, I’ve been unable to thrive and had to move home at 60 while waiting for my disability denial again even tho I’m only able to earn 12k a year with this condition.
A neurologist can’t do a dam thing to change my past or future besides keep track of faltering abilities and my regular dr can do that.

Just commenting on your puzzle image. I picture my husband's brain as a puzzle with all the pieces, but the pieces just don't fit together like they used to. Your comments have been very helpful to me. I feel like we are in the trenches together. Thank you.
