Heres a question for you all
 

We all get mental problems with this but the worst for me is short term Memory Loss
My wife can tell me something and I've totally forgotten it in 10 mins or I ask her a question and she says you asked me that 5 mins ago but I have no recollection of it.
So why is it that I never forget I have short term memory loss

Thanks Kev. I really needed that laugh this morning.

Well there's that... lol :p

Two things go bad with old age...
One is your short term memory...
But I forgot the second one...

It sucks I know.My memory loss has to do with something I need to get (in my home) or do something. If I want to get a bottle of water from the kitchen I will forget within seconds what I was going to do. It's all the time. I have to write it on a piece of paper because I got tired of going to a room and having no idea why I'm there. I thought it was because every move i make depends on the pain. I have to watch how I stand up and definitely how I walk to where ever I'm going. I pay so much attach to that I forget everything else.

I can go to the grocery store and have no idea on what I was going to get. It's not old age because i've been this way since I was 29. Before RSD it was completely the opposite.

Heather, that's a great idea to write it on a slip of paper! We could walk around the house with fluorescent colored post-its all over ourselves! I love it! :D

Also, my DH found an article recently that confirms what we've always thought, that we leave the word for what we want in the room we were in we thought of it. As in, I'm in the kitchen and think of something I need to do in the bedroom, I go to the bedroom and haven't a clue WHY! :confused: I go back to the kitchen and I remember what I wanted in the bedroom! :rolleyes:

Anyone familiar with that?

Me too lone wolf!
