Yet another Neuropsychologist appointment

My blog was down for a while so I have not been able to update about the latest on the medical front. Last month I went to see another neuropsychologist, this time in Oxford for a proper brain screening of sorts. I wanted to find out if there had been any damage done to my brain either by having meningitus after my surgery or from the surgery itself. It was a four hour appointment; first I met the psychologist and we discussed my medical history and then how I felt I was functioning on a daily or even overall basis. To me I feel like sometimes I am losing the plot because I can't concentrate, I get my words tangled up and I forget things. So I was then put through a series of tests; things like I would be told a story and I had to try and remember as much as possible and relay it back, repeating back series of numbers both forwards and backwards and pattern puzzles. It was actually really interesting. The result was that I am in fact still reasonably intelligent and performed well in my tasks and notably neatly! Some were even excellent. (Major surprise to me!) It is apparent however that because I get very tired, my brain can only perform at half speed during those times. Conclusion: I am a genius 50 % of the time and a tard the other 50%! Ha ha ha!
