One of the steps i need to complete before i can have my spinal fusion done, is meet with a Neuro Psychologist.
Does anyone have experience with this?
Thanks for any help! Joe
@mvanstem If I might ask, what symptoms are you experiencing? You’ve posted this Discussion in the Brain and Nervous System Support Group. Is the emotional blunting you are referring to the result of a stroke? A disease of the nervous system? Also, how would you define emotional blunting?
I have Cerebellar Ataxia, a degenerative nervous system disease. I term what I am experiencing as ‘emotional blunting’. I no longer feel joy, sadness, etc. There is even an article on the connection written by a renowned neurology ataxia specialist. I’ve had antidepressants, psychology testing and a psychologist talk therapy at my own request with no impact whatsoever.
