Lately I've been experiencing progressions I don't want to admit. Anyone else know how to explain the feeling I call "slipping away" for lack of better terms. Names and some common things I should be capable of repeating or doing without thinking elude me It's like sometimes I don't know me!!!

Yes, that’s where I am, but only at times. It feels like it is progressing and I can’t stop my body from slipping away. I can’t remember words to complete sentences..

This has been happening to me too, at times, and I think exactly like you “ This is not me!”. It is most disconcerting, but all we can do is keep on keeping going forward, I guess!

i've been diagnosed 4 years ago. As part of my business I maintain my web site. It can take me hours now to do what took me a few minutes.My thinking and reactions as well as walking has slowed down. I am also exercising three days a week, but although it makes me feel great in some ways, I'm shaking and tired more.

Can you exercise more frequently- Little 10 min sessions, a few times per day ?

Not what you're looking for?
