God this post and replies does me so much good. I have been so stressed this past year with all my brain glitches. It's just not forgetting what I was talking about, or not being able to pull up the name of a person I've known for years, or getting into the car to go someplace and forgetting how to get there. Seriously it's happened a half a dozen times to me when I'm going some place I've gone a 100 times and I have to stop and think how I get there.
My friends and family (those in my age group) tell me don't worry it happens to them too. And yet I can't recall ever seeing it happen to them.
I do see a therapist and she told me the less you use your brain cells the more you lose them. Right now I'm doing memory /brain games to try to at least slow the process down. I try to stay active and involved.
It probably isn't going to get better, just hope it doesn't get worse.
