Mike, you posted videos about dementia and I said they did not address my experience. Here is my experience. In the beginning, I felt as though I had a hangover, although I had had no alcohol. My brain was "fuzzy". Now, after all of the treatment I have done for myself, I don't have any fuzziness.
Nowadays, I feel alert, but I just don't remember. For example, I recalled listening to a marvelous speech by Fran Drescher on July 13th, although I don't remember what words she spoke. I remember the event and how I felt about it, but not the specifics. This is not unusual. I don't remember much unless I take notes. But I don't let it bother me.
