What's going on?
Hi Friends,I think I mentioned I sell Avon to you before, and I'm not trying to sell anything here, but the information is relevant in my problem. I continued to keep up my status while I was getting surgery and radiation with the help of my daughter and friend. Of course I emailed most of my customers and some ordered online, and some just waited till I was done, so I didn't have much to do. Now that I'm home, I started trying to do it again fulltime, and I wonder if it's too much for me. I love doing it, love my people, but I just totally screwed up an order today due to the fact that I simply can't remember what happened before.And that brings me to the point that I have been noticing that my mind is not as sharp as it was before radiation. I've been frustrated and downright embarrassed that I am repeating myself, or missing things and forgetting things. I feel like I am losing it! My therapist thinks it is normal for my stress level, but I am getting scared. I've never had this problem before, other than when I had dissasociation problems from abuse, but that was more clearly a mental health issue. Is this a menopause thing, a stress thing, a medicine thing, a Fibromyalgia thing, or all of the above? Or is it Alzheimers like my mother-in-law died from? I know there is a thing that Fibro Fog known to those with Fibromyalgia, but I didn't really know what it was. Anybody relate?Thanks!

Oh yeah babe!!! Medication will do that to you. So will surgery, anesthesia and not getting enough sleep, STRESS will be a HUGE factor, and so can FAMILY!!!!!!!!!!!! I have had this problem for years now, most by all the meds. I was on for YEARS that I was allergic too. Plus, physical and mental abuse from an older sibling and ex-husband. My Mother died of Alzheimer\'s, but I have never thought that is the problem.
This morning I called a clock repairman and asked him for directions to bring over my PHONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahaha You see, if you know you are doing it, it\'s not Alzheimer\'s!!!
we have some things in common ..will u add me as your friend..
