so...still new to the whole blogging network thing. while waiting for my blog to be approved (keeping fingers crossed), i thought i'd just say hi. i'm suffering from memory loss possibly related to depression meds, ptsd, or whatever other dumb diagnoses the docs can make up. point is, i forget things. ALOT. so i blog about it hoping that maybe someone else who has similar issues can either relate or offer insight.

Hi Pam. Have you had your B12 level checked? Most doctors don't think to check this, but it can have a profound effect on your memory. It's a condition called pernicious anemia, and it means your body does not absorb vitamin B12 through the foods you eat the way it should, and you must get B12 injections. Once B12 is at a normal rate, many of the memory problems go away.
I wrote about my experience with memory loss here...Where In The World Did My Memory Go? ( http://livingwithcfs.wordpress.com/2007/03/13/wher... )
