Oh heavens, if my memory gets any worse, I won't remember my own name! I haven't been sleeved yet but now I'm really frightened!

Are you diabetic? I know that when my sugar is off, I get a bit confused & can't remember things.

Good luck to you & I'll be interested in reading some answers that come out on this thread!

Ill be 39 this yr and i have the occasional memory problem but this is differant. I called the drs office today and they said it was from me being dehydrated. I read lack of Vitamins can cause it too.

I'm glad you found out that's what it was from! Hopefully getting more Water in will help with your memory loss! Good luck!

sorry for my silly/wise crack answer above

not drinking, being dehydrated = memory problems - makes sense

good explanation for elderly and their memory problems

my mom is 83 - as many seniors - she doesn't drink much/enough

i'm gonna work on her about drinking more - for your health in general

we all do know the importance of drinking H20
