Mouth

I am sure this is not just an MS thing, but don't you hate it when your mouth Works faster then your mind analyzes things. I sometimes ask questions I already know the answer to, but just happen to realize as I'm speaking, or right after I speak. It is very frustrating for me.

I repeat questions a lot and get all discombobulated when I talk, too. I think it's definitely an MS thing for me. I think it's more noticeable to me...or bothersome, I should say...than it is to others. I asked my husband if he has noticed me struggling lately and he says he has but only because I've pointed it out. So, I'm not sure if he's just being kind. He may be. Regardless, we can only slow down and do our best. If folks give us that funny look, we can just give it right back to them. 🙃😏🤔

Absolutely, my husband and neuro are thinking that my cognitive skills are getting fuzzy, will be taking neuropsychological tests in July, then possible more MRI's before Oct. Neuro appt.

I repeat myself, my husband or anyone else can tell me something and I've forgot it in 10 minutes. I also write all kinds of notes to myself that help me keep focused on each days chores, to do list etc.
