Horrific Memory........ Really Upsetting.
45 Answers
For the last couple of years my memory has got to the point of causing huge difficulties. I’ve seen my doctor, who referred me to a neurologist. I’ve had brain scans, MRI’s, you name it, but absolutely everything is clear I told him I was terrified that I had Alzheimer’s but he said I didn’t, and that he was baffled tbh.
I then went to see another neurologist who completely agreed with him.
When I broke my hand in November I was being showed the x-ray results on the computer screen by the doctor when I had a full blown seizure in front of him, of which I have absolutely no memory, and woke up on a hospital trolley, not having a clue what had happened. And they couldn’t explain it either.
I’m having to write things down all the time. And keep a log of things Ive forgotten .
Mr Smow took me to Centre Parks last months for a break and booked a gorgeous cottage. I said to him it’s beautiful here- why have we never stayed here before?
He looked at me in complete disbelief and said you are joking?? We stayed here 2 years ago!! I have NO memory of it.
I just don’t know what else to do, am so upset.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Because of so much physical and mental stress over recent years my memory has gone to pot. Try and stop worrying about it because it will make it worse. Keep in touch with your GP. But I would also strongly recommend that you talk to him/her about getting some counselling. Like you I worried about dementia and all other problems in my head. It's a horrible state to be in and I can empathise. Keep strong. Best wishes x
Smow, you'd do well to discuss going to a sleep clinic to look at your sleep patterns as a way to get to the bottom of your problem. There is also an online course...approved and offered by the NHS called sleepstation...the purpose of it is to get to the underlying causes of your insomnia. I gather it can be done without a GPs approval if the criteria are met.
But you HAVE to do something...and be firm with your doctor about just how much this is affecting you.
