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.

Lack of sleep is hugely implicated inn those with poor memory and I know you struggle with that.
Obviously a good diet and some exercise is essential too.
You might also investigate Brain Training, results have been good in studies.

Maybe my thyroxine levels need to be increased - I’ve just Googled it and he’s I do seem to have several of the symptoms.
As for sleep, I never sleep more than 2 hrs in a row, I’m lucky if I ever get 4 in a entire night. I went to bed at 10pm last night and was still wide awake at 3am. No don’t seem to have nightmare, but odd dreams yes.
I went to my doctor well over a year ago but he wouldn’t give me anything. Maybe I need to tell him just how bad it’s got.
