Re: [TMIC] am i getting worse?

Oh Krissy, you poor love!!!  You know that if you have had a "big" day, you will pay, so really, I think you shouldn't worry too much about being tipsy after that.   The memory business comes with the blessing of tm.  I know exactly what you mean and can understand your frustration.  Especially since you are so young for this to be happening.  I find myself even using a completly wrong word and often with no good effect :-)).   My best advice to you is to TRY not to worry and stress over it.  The more you do that, the worse it gets.  If you can learn to ride with it, it seems to calm down a bit and you will have good days and bad days.  The good days are a real bonus!   That's what happens with me anyway, for what it's worth.  Hope it helps.   hugs Gilly www.originaltouchofgilly.com for quality handcrafted costume jewellery From: Krissy Z To: TM List ; TMA-New-England Sent: Thursday, September 07, 2006 10:54 AM Subject: [TMIC] am i getting worse? well, I notice my balance is a little more  off balance lately..more so than usual..I know I could get *tipsy* now and again, but especially in the mornings now I am way off balance and sometimes after a longer day I find myself falling into things more...also, my memory is really geting bad now..mostly my short term and its really starting to bother me. I cannot always recall the names of simple things ..like when I was in the cellar asking the boys to help me clean I was pointing to the sleeping bag , snapping my fingers calling it a blue thing....then the other night, my daughter and I did her bedtime prayer and I walked into the other room o get her something and walked back in and said 'lets do prayer" and she said but mama we already did it, and I had NO recollection of doing it!!!! I felt like an idiot...I feel like saying wtf is happening to me? Is it early Alzheimer's???? sheesh, it brings me to tears....is it because I am not getting to the gym to exercise, or on here too much? not outside as much, I don't know...but it seriously is bothering me...
