I wish things were more straight forward concerning strokes. For the longest time I did not understand why I had the "shiver" reflex all the time. I wasn't cold but it happened all the time. One day I was reading a stroke website for one of the foundations. I learned that the "shiver" reflects is normal. Some people get it and some don't. It doesn't seem to have any effect if I'm concentrating on something. I sort my pills and it has never bothered me then. Right now while I am typing it doesn't seem to be working. Maybe the act of concentration reduces or eliminates the likelihood of it happening.
I want to say something. I do not appreciate some people putting things away for me and not telling me where they are. I just made a discovery of some of my pills. They had been put out of sight from me. Out of sight means out of mind.
I know some people think they may be helping me. If I can't find it or reach it it is not helpful. Are you trying to help me or yourself?
Because of this I am considering removing all the cupboard doors. Maybe that's a bit extreme.
I have been contemplating my memory some more these days. And have come to the conclusion that my memory is not what it used to be. I still have an amazing long term memory. Some short term things I loose track of easily. Not sure what to do. All the tests say I'm amazing. It seems that some intermediate things can be a little more trouble for me.
Maybe you need to your meds locked up in a special cabinet or safe that only you and perhaps one other person knows how to get them. You could be in trouble if you don't get what the doctors need you to take! Hang tough!
