Yepper, I have this too and it seems to worsen with exhaustion and levels of pain being increased. Also alot to do with Med's

Heya Roz

Good luck with the Vancomyosin!!

I swear I have pain induced dsylexia, Tourettes and aphasia. I used to be an excellent student and the other day I must have sat there for about an hour trying to work out how to spell gone. I then looked at my essay and realised I'd spelt it GORN the entire way through. grrr. I find not being able to name objects hard, (ever stared at a fridge and forgotten what it's called? ever had to play guess the object as I have no clue at all?).

I think its all linked in - Mum is muttering at me that chronic pain does cause cognitive problems etc (and very little sleep even without the meds and pain can cause them as well)....

Rain - totally agree!!

Mum had Pink and I within 13 months of each other and reckons she went through similar cognitive issues when she was first bringing us up.... as soon as one of us fell asleep the other would scream and dad was away for alot of it. She apparently turned into a cognitive zombie who found reading a newspaper hard etc etc etc.......... and then add pain and meds!!...

so don't feel doomed to altzheimer! maybe you're just "different" (one advantage is that it makes you brilliant at the game "articulation"...I win every time!)

Love ya
