S/p teratoma/encepha: F/u with neurologist may consider neuropsychological testing .Also ask about Provigil that may improve alertness and concentration and go over you medications some like topamax (topiramate) have a larger effect on cognitive function. Do not stop any medication until you have discussed it with your doctor you do not want to start seizing. If you can write to health tap you are intelligent and able.
