Hi Kelly,

Welcome to the community! Can you tell us a little more about what brought you to this group?

Hi

I'm currently on lots of medication for a back problem. however I am constantly forgetting things. I can be mid conversation and forget the next word I want to say.

I'm really worried but my doctor said it's my meds but this started a year ago when I was on different medication...

I wanted to see if anyone else had/has gone through the same..

Certain medications can definitely impact memory. You can use a resource like WebMD to look at the side effects for your meds by name.

Also, take a look at the Pinned Posts (right side) for a guide to "normal" age related memory examples.

All the best.
