Oh yeah sure did!!! AND NOT just because I’m a blond like some would think LOL.

When you have a thought for something you need to do,buy or ask someone else always always write it down. Really take the time to write stuff down. You will notice that even though you say you’ll remember to do it or even say"i’ll remember to write it down", it never works. Trust me take that moment to write it when it’s in your head, it will save you a lot of frustration.

Welcome to the boards!!

Well thanks, glad to know thats part of all this mess. It’s a big problem for me, I work as a Medical Assistant, and there’s little room for error. I have to be on my toes. I’m praying that it gets better once my levels go down.

It does get better, promise. It takes a while though ~ and during treatment you may go hypo briefly, which does the same thing but in a different way. Make a notepad your best friend. I’m a legal secretary and I had some similar concerns, but found that religiously writing everything down really helped me to keep up.

I know exactly what you mean. I’m a teacher and I help prepare high school students for the ACT and SAT tests. One of my first symptoms looking back is that I was having a hard time processing the test questions and explaining them. I also forget things – like walk into a room and don’t know why I’m there.

Good luck,

Emily

Hi, I was just diagnosed this week. I’ve read alot about Grave’s anticipating it would be the diagnosis. But I was wondering if anyone else has had trouble with mental clarity, trouble focusing and remembering things. I feel like I’m loosing my mind sometimes!

Writing it down does help alot….I write down all of the meds I take…every time I take them. I have a calander on my wall for all of my appts as well as my kids. Brain Fog. Loads of fun.

Hi Zelda,

Lashing out is another troublesome symptom ~ as you say though, nice to know this is why, if that helps much. Try talking with your family members when you are feeling relatively calm to explain, and figure out some kind of "safe word" they can say to you to lighten the moment. You must promise to lighten up when it is said. ” title=”Very Happy” />
