Hi Gladiators ,
memory is getting worse and started to be annoying. Is there a medication for that or cartain strategy ?
Joined an online hangout for MS'rs featuring a talk about MS and cognitive function.
It was advised that brain training would not really help and it was more about the techniques used to remember things.
Eg. Keeping items in the same place all the time...Writing things down... Etc....
I work in IT and the 'brain hiccups' became noticeable to myself in the very early stages.
Now, record keeping has become very much a part of my life.
(But it gets annoying when I remember having recorded something but not remembering where.)
Gotta laugh, otherwise I will cry.
Yes Dariene , it is frustraring and annoying , thank God for giving us strength to bear. Sure we are gladiiators becuase we are fighting everyday.
Oh My Goodness @A MyMSTeam Member I feel your frustrating pain !!!!! I am trying to remember to put notes in my phone because I am very rarely without it .
Write the list. Leave the list at home. Bring the list and leave it in the car. Can't find the list and wonder, why am I not using my phone for the list? I surely would not leave or lose it!
My Dr told me he cannot do anything about my memory loss due to scaring in the brain so im not qite sure why some ppl are on medication i was told to just do more puzzles memory games and to exerise my brain as much a i can by making myself remember little things instead of wrighting things down one plus to the memory fog everytime i pick out a movie to watch i dont remem
ber it so its like im watching it for the first time LMAO
