Suggest Treatment For Short Term Memory Loss
Question: I recently (within the last 3-5 months) have been experiencing short term memory loss. I work in a highly technical field and so far can continue competently, but the memory loss requires me to write more notes to myself that I forget to check. I am relying more and more on people around me to keep me on task. I hope that whatever I am going through is environmental (I live in an RV that a couple of years ago had some mold issues that I think i cleared up well - Mold Bomb and scrubbing). I am scared that my mind is getting destroyed and I won't come back.
