StormE,

If you have been taking Valium for a long time, it can be a part of your memory problems. Benzos have a well know side-effect of memory problems.

It would help if you could post the different medications and treatments you have received including how long you were on the various meds.

Your BPD diagnosis can also be a misdiagnosis that would be more accurate as PCS or chemo-brain. Chemo-brain is the result of chemo-therapy and has many of the same symptoms as PCS and poisonings.

Have you read the Vitamins thread in the stickies at the top ? You may find brain nutrition to be a big help. The injured brain needs nutritional help.

I am confused by your mention of 2 1/2 years vs 22 years ago. Typo or just incomplete information ?
