Memory ... Now what was I going to say?!
Does anyone else find things difficult to remember? I'm only 30 and I find that I forget what I've said, especially more recently. I put it down to a busy job where there's a lot I have to remember (am a project manager and work on a lot of IT projects, each different) but my husband's getting worried so I just wondered if anyone else is like this? I have been tired more (and had a relapse mid feb) so probably a mix of things! Thanks : )
Word recall seems to be the main problem for me. Is so annoying sometimes, but then I remember the word hours later when it isn't relevant any more!
my cognition has fluctuated - obviously worse the more tired i am - my ms nurse summed it up perfectly for my employers to understand - my mind/memory used to be like a library all the books in rows and in order so it was easy to access/retrieve/remember information but now cos of my ms its like a teenager's bedroom - all messy and mixed up - the info is still there it just takes me longer to work it out/process and remember it!!! we've put things in place to help me - i'm a solicitor so running files means much memory usage and multi tasking. i've just learned to adapt and with a few tricks up my sleeve to minimise mix ups and frustration on my part its something you learn to live with - like with most ms symptoms!!
