Memory
 

So I took a neuropysch test or whatever they call em today and scored in the 2 percentile in memory. So 98 out of 100 have a better memory then I do >.< what do I do now?

2nd percentile?????
 

Hello.....I am 10 months into Post Concussive Syndrome and had a full neuropsych. testing done a couple of months ago. If you have had neurpsych testing done then you are obviously being treated by doctors. Do what the doctors tell you and see a neurologist if you can. Their are no secret medications or things you can do to regain memory function other than rest and heal from your injury, whatever that was.

2nd % though is you either BS-ing this forum or you have memory functioning to that of a severe alzheimers patient.

Alxheimers patients lose short term and long term memory due to degreneration. Guess I should have been more clear, I have no problems with my long term memory or foregetting things I have already learned. The tests they gave me consisted of reading me stories and lists of words I had to repeat back, of which tests I scored in the 2nd percent. They said I do pick up on remebering things, it just takes me longer or whatever.

I am already seeing a neurologist for headaches and this was the first neuropysh test I had my concussion 3 years ago. I noticed problems at work so I was curious were I stand with things. They did tell me they would talk to student services at my school, but I don't really think its that bad. Just started college though so I'm going to wait and see if I have a hard time with anything. I'm just wondering if theres anything I can do to improve my memory this late in the game?

omega 3 +
 

hi

omega 3 plus Thiamin, thiamin monophosphate, ascorbic acid, and folic acid

cant hurt to take them


Thiamin, thiamin monophosphate, ascorbic acid, and folic acid were determined in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in 31 outpatients who underwent a myelography because of back-pain. All subjects were otherwise healthy. The CSF concentration (mean +/- SD) was 8.6 +/- 3.9 nmol thiamin/L, 16.9 +/- 8.3 nmol thiamin monophosphate/L, 133 +/- 58.8 mumol ascorbic acid/L, and 44.9 +/- 13.2 nmol folic acid/L. The CSF- serum ratio was 2.1 +/- 0.8 for thiamin, 8.3 +/- 4.3 for thiamin monophosphate, 3.0 +/- 1.4 for ascorbic acid, and 3.3 +/- 0.8 for folic acid; the amount in CSF was significantly higher than in serum for each compound. These results support the existence of a saturated transport mechanism of water-soluble vitamins from serum into CSF for thiamin monophosphate, ascorbic acid, and folic acid. However, low CSF concentrations are correlated with low serum concentrations for the three vitamins. High serum concentrations should therefore be advocated to ensure high CSF concentrations.
