@spottedcat83 Hello and welcome to Mayo Connect. It sounds as if you have been through an incredible trauma and your frustration with your current situation is very understandable. You do not mention where you live, however, in Michigan we have Hope Network which is a Rehabilitation facility that specializes in neurocognitive rehab. This type of rehab would be very helpful to you. Perhaps you could use your computer and google the term, "neruocognitive rehab" in your locale and see what facilities might be available near you and then see if they can help you. If you are comfortable sharing more, let us know how you ended up in ICU. Was it the result of an accident or stroke? We look forward to getting to know you better. Teresa

I will try to find neurocognitive rehab. I live in the Seattle area. None of the medical people I've seen have known anything about Post Intensive Care Syndrome, though the neuropsychologist was very helpful and knew I was in distress.

@spottedcat83 Please keep in touch with us. We would like to know when you find some help for your cognitive issues. Teresa

@spottedcat83 I'm glad to hear that the neuropsychologist was helpful and knew you were in distress. That is a great clue for you. Have you considered calling that neuropsychologist and asking for a referral for neurocognitive rehab? Teresa

@spottedcat83 - I sent you a personal message in your account that you might find helpful!
