Hi TooKool, welcome to the forum.

Is the RNS still in clinical trials? What made you decide to try it?
 
Hi tookool :D Glad to meet you.
It sounds like you're getting ready for some pretty exciting stuff. Wow!

I did that before my surgery last Feb.
The neuropsych testing was difficult for me because I take things was too seriously. Six months after surgery the hospital gave me the exact same testing and I had exactly the same results with a tiny loss of the use of my right fingers/hand. (my testing had just one very brief glance at stuff like that).
Please keep in contact with us here and let us know how you're doing.
