What are the tests that are given with the assessment. My husband had an appointment with a Neuropsychologist on 3/20. He was taken to room (without me) for a 2.5 hour test. After 1 hour ,the person that was giving the test (not the Neuropsychologist) came out to the waiting room and told me my husband decided not to continue.
She then told me that the Neuropsychologist wanted to talk to my husband and myself. For the next hour she asked many questions about daily life, family history. My husband kept telling her to ask me. She then asked if my husband wanted to continue with the test( for another 2 hours).
He said no. On the way home he was so confused about what transpired that day.
He told me all he remembered was being woke up in a hospital room. He mentioned that the drugs they gave him must have been really good. He mentioned that he didn't remember waking up that morning. He wasn't given any medication and was present all day
It was like his memory of that day got erased. I have never witnessed that with him. Something triggered his memory to go away for the that day.
The scheduler is supposed to call and setup another appointment to finish the test. Not sure If I want him to go thru that again.
Have you ever heard of any patients having this kind of reaction.
