Something to amuse

When I was having a brain-fog moment the other day my sis said 'are you having a craft day today?' 'Craft?' I said. 'Can't Remember a F'in thing' day LOL

[SheffieldJane]

Very witty! It’s annoying though, I just can’t get my head round names. Please don’t let it be dementia!

[bunnymom in reply to SheffieldJane]

Me too!!!

[tangocharlie in reply to SheffieldJane]

Me too, but I think that's just normal for my age

[SheffieldJane in reply to tangocharlie]

I find particular words get me, like Unicorn, this matters because my granddaughter is 5 and they form a big part of her joy. Unicorn,Unicorn Unicorn 🦄!

[Hirwaen in reply to SheffieldJane]

My Mom lost her shirt term memory to a minor stroke.

She would cheerfully explain to people the she had CRS - "Can't Remember Sh**.

[SheffieldJane in reply to GOOD_GRIEF]

I will steal that from your mum. I am sure my kids think I’m faking it.

You are not alone !!

[PMRpro Ambassador]

Should it be a listed PMR symptom do you think?

I've had a couple of REAL craft days - about 5 or 6 hours of NO short term memory at all, ended up in hospital both times. Diagnosis: transient global amnesia. Scary for everyone else - I don't remember anything except the recovery stage ...

[tangocharlie in reply to PMRpro]

That does sound scary. What causes it?

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to tangocharlie]

They don't know - not even the neuro people have an answer!!

[DorsetLady PMRGCAuk volunteer]

Must remember that one! 🤦🏻‍♀️

[anutycrixp]

[Telian]

Very funny!

[Bonnie-ma]

Very funny acronyms. Used to see a lot of these written in patients’ notes in A & E before it all went politically correct. E.g. WOFTAM.... waste of f....... timeand money. But my particular favourite was GROLIES.... Guardian Reader of Limited Intelligence in Ethnic Skirt.

[tangocharlie in reply to Bonnie-ma]

Ha ha though I doubt a Guardian reader ever had limited intelligence, probably know more than the Doctor, hence the sneer no doubt

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to tangocharlie]

I suspect it was to suggest people with a strong tendency to alternative beliefs with regard to medicine ...

[tangocharlie in reply to PMRpro]

Ah I see like waving the right crystal and windchimes around under a full moon will cure anything ......

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to tangocharlie]

Something like that ...
