Memory loss definitely. i was an associate professor of economics at an engineering college, and could enter a classroom and teach the entire lecture without notes of any kind. But after getting ™ and after a couple of disastrous lectures wherein I blanked out (or had seizures), I was let go.
Now the memory loss for even day-to-day things is degraded. I suspect it comes from maybe three sources. In my case the lesion was on the brainstem, and even though it later healed over and even cleared up, it left me with a "cognitive deficit," which I would characterize as becoming easily flustered by mental complications. The medicines we take for pain and nerve damage control definitely affect memory. Finally, being taken out of a working routine where daily and hourly mental performance is required to hold a job means that the necessity of having to memorize is taken away. This alone affects memory, to which any retired person can attest.
