Hi all,
This morning as I was driving to work, I lost 20 minutes of memory. I remember over taking a lorry and then noticing trees on the side of the road. I was worried I’d missed by turning, but then realised 20 minutes had passed with me having no memory of them.
I must have been lucid as I managed to take an exit and take the fourth exit on a busy roundabout in that time.
I was really shook up and completed the rest of my commute repeating “concentrate, concentrate” to myself.
All day I have felt brain foggy, a bit light headed and have struggled to follow conversations, in that I keep having to ask people to repeat themselves. I’ve also struggled to think of words.
I don’t do drugs and last had a drink at the weekend; just a couple glasses of wine.
I’ve put it down to it being Friday and me just being very tired after a very stressful week; as I haven’t been sleeping properly. I was planning on an early night and that was that.
When I told my line manager; she insisted that I should get checked out as it “sounded serious”
She’s catastrophising, isn’t she? I hate bothering doctors… I guess I’m just wondering what you’d do in my shoes?
