One of the most typical traditions in Save me is the realization of a intelligence tests to collaborators and guests. What for the program supposed a mere covert competition without too much importance turned out to be much more important for one of the most controversial collaborators: José Antonio Avilés.
And it is that the Cordovan journalist, whose arrival made Jorge Javier Vázquez very angry with his alleged lack of credibility, discovered thanks to the evidence that have had a microstroke at some point in their lives without realizing it.
“A month after the test they told me that the psychologist wanted to talk to me about a health problem. He told me after reviewing the post-test report I had consulted some neuropsychiatric colleagues because a rather unusual score came out in the verbal memory”, he began by explaining in the latest episode of Sage of luxury.
According to psychologist Ana Isabel Gutiérrez, her neuropsychiatrist colleague asked her if the patient had headaches or similar symptoms. “I couldn’t tell him anything, but the punctuation needed to be explored because there was a chance it was something serious”.
Minimal scare
Frightened by the phone calls, José Antonio Avilés began to think that it was a serious illness. “A tumor came to my mind, but after the tests they ruled it out. Anyway, They have seen some micro strokes that many people suffer in society and they don’t even know it. They are small dotted dots“, He added.
Also, inquiring about his medical history, he recalled a night when he had to go to the emergency room with excruciating pain in one eye, an increase in blood pressure and a desire to vomit, symptoms that could be consistent with a stroke. “At that time I went to the doctor and they said it was due to stress. When the doctor got into my story, he saw that picture, but he couldn’t assure me it happened that day“, settled.
A “strange” result.
Already the moment the results of the intelligence test were known, the psychologist was surprised by the “strange” results that José Antonio Avilés was facing. “It’s not a normal 128. not a normal average. We’re talking about a low grade in verbal intelligence. In nonverbal we find a score of 160 and in verbal memory we find that it has a score of 10”, he explained. Now we can know the possible reason.
