Have any of you experience or knowledge of latent symptoms from brain injury?
In 1988 I was in a terrible car crash and incurred a major concussion. I don't remember much of it.
Lately--and arguably I AM turning 60 this year---I have been becoming very forgetful, and I am often at a loss for a word I want. I repeat myself according to my daughters ("You told me that, Mom!" I can't remember who I've told things to.) and misplace things occasionally.
This past week I ordered something online. It was returned twice for inability to deliver. The first time I gave the wrong address (transposition of MY OWN street address) THEN when I corrected it, I transposed it a different way again! Finally today I got it right. (The customer service at Craftsy is superb---I recommend highly.)
I don't know that it's the injury...it may be something else, but my doctor has checked me out and I'm physically ok---albeit very low in Vit D. But these lapses seem to be coming more often and suddenly, too. This time last year I wasn't this bad.I'm beginning to worry about it.
