Hello Sonam

I was diagnosed with TB Meningitis in 2008 st the age of 32. I have suffered with short term memory problems since so I manage by writing anything I need to remember in my phone and use alarms to remind me.

I get mentally tired now, can say things without thinking and also have low bladder pressure which means I rarely empty my bladder fully.

I was on the medication for 12 months.

Feel free to message me if you have any further questiins

I had experienced all of those you had said.I was diagonosed with tb meningitis and i had high pressure in the brain so doctors placed vp shunt to treat that.I had lost memories of a year before i had it.And i couldn't regain them as those neurons were affected.It also affected my spinal cord leaving me with paraplegia.I took tb medicine for 1year.
