Memory Loss??
I was just wondering if anyone POST-OP has had any memory loss ... I have been forgetful lately and I just seem to be "spacey" ... I know with everything going on with the surgery, stressing over hairloss, etc. it is normal to forget some things here and there. But this is sooooo not me. I am the type of person that doesn't have to write down the date of an appointment for me or my 3 kids ... but now ... WOAH, watch out, if I don't ... ummm we don't make it to the appt. because I will forget!
I have been noticing me forgetting things & being confused sometimes (not really confused, but have to sit and really THINK about what I was just asked or where I put my keys or anything of that nature). My husband noticed today & said "is it a side effect of the surgery that makes you forgetful?" ... I told him I have never heard of it, but will ask around.
EXAMPLE: My husband was running to his parents house, so I told him to pick up our sons Rx at the drugstore. He left the drugstore, called me & said that I already picked them up on June 22. I said NO WAY! I don't remember picking them up with my Rx's I got that day ... I went to the kitchen and there they were ... filled & ready for my son. WTF?
I am getting scared ... I can deal with anything else but my mind going wacky! HELP! Is/did anyone going through this?? Should I call my PCP or surgeon ... I am a stay at home mommy, I can't have my brain foggy like this!
