Long term memory location in the brain
Common Questions and Answers about Long term memory location in the brain
memory
Whether that really happens is another point entirely. If the lesion affects the right precise spot in the general area then it alters that signal, such as your frontal lobe lesion.
You could have frontal lobe lesions and have absolutely no problem if it didn't touch the right spots.
I know that sounds round-about. I hope this makes sense.
Yes Fentanyl or any narcotic can effect our short term memories, regardless of our age. Physicians walk the fine line of memory impairment or pain management. It is my guess you would rather see your mother with some memory disturbances instead of dealing with chronic pain that would make her days and nights absolutely miserable.
On 5/12/10 I started a new job that is extremly stressfull yet ive managed to keep the dose the same but I am having panic attacks, one in the middle of the night was severe. I seem to get mini attacks in the mornings, right as im waking up. I know that its addictive. What im wondering if long term use can affect the brain? Im very forgetful and misplace things all the time. I know that comes with age , I"ll be 60 in Oct.
hey guys, I was diagnosed with short term memory back in high school...teachers were made aware of this issue & I was given extra time to take tests/study. A few years have passed since then, but I find that I seem to be forgetting things quicker than I used to. For instance, I couldnt even remember the name of a movie I saw with my friend two days ago or our conversation....sometimes conversations hours after they have occurred. is there anythinng I can do to help improve my memory???
Although I have no problem remembering facts and figures and my short term memory is better than most, I have no long term memory of events. I know it's normal not to remember childhood, but I don't remember high school or college or anything I did there. In fact, my oldest memory is looking outside and seeing chairs on the lawn at my mom's birthday. That was two weeks ago and there only seems to be a vague, blank space before it. Memories just fade after a few weeks.
Scientists have found that one fruit could hold the key to supercharging your memory.One little fruit could stop or even reverse years of cognitive decline.
This fruit contains special substances that help your brain cells send and receive information faster. Much faster. Plus, according to the new research, it doesn't take long for your brain to start working lightening fast...just 12 weeks.
Having said that, I would also say that brain is the most important organ, as it controls the whole body. Hence nature has made man in such a way that brain in cushioned inside the skull covered with protective layers (hair, scalp, bone, duramater etc) and cerebro-spinal fluid (CSF). Normally when the head is hit all these protective layers and the CSF cushion the hit and keep the brain safe. Small hits like the way your friend hit you will cause no damage to brain normally.
Subcortical basically means the white matter below the cortex which is the top, main section and grey matter of the brain........honestly without any other more specific information in your report foci in those location are more likely to be silent micro vascular related and less likely to be related to be demyelinating lesions like the type of lesions suggestive-consistent with a neurological condition like MS.
How long term? 6 months to a year is not that long to be on it, but if you are thinking like 5 to 10 years is more longer term. It is all definitely possible if it is needed, some times a drug will lose its ability to work after a while so has to be changed with another but I think if it works now then that's great and don't worry about the future to much, what will happen will happen. Sorry don't know about the memory and side effects long term.
After coratid artery surgery, experiencing memory loss which is not consistently short term or long term, is it possible for the brain to reconfigure areas damaged by particles that passed through the filter and regain the ability to remember?

It is the part of the nervous system that organizes and processes information in the brain. If someone asks you a question for example------ the brain takes in the words. It then processes them. It then organizes the thought. It then organizes the thought for the answer. It gets the "plan" together and it then sends the message back out to the motor muscles (mouth) to answer.
I was working at a nursing home in June for three months and through that period of time I began to develop different symptoms. Short term memory and long term memory loss. Mood swings, shortness of breath and paranoid spells. One night I had a high fever, horrible headache and notified a rash developing ion my arms and legs. At first I thought maybe chicken pox but so I went to minor emergency. The doctor said nothing and told me to go home and put some cream on it.
Oke so 1.5 years ago I got a very tiny piece of minth stuck in my throat. Whatever I've been trying I couldn't cought it out. I still have that feeling on the same spot now about 10 cm below the adams apple.
m aware that Ambien is only recommended for 7-10 days, and the clinical trials were in numbers of weeks, not years. Not much is really known about the long term effects, and it needs to be scrutinized. Unfortunately, I think it can be difficult to remove factors that contribute to cognitive impairment that exist alongside Ambien use, such as depression, anxiety, caffeine use, diet, lack of exercise, and sleep deprivation itself.
Electroencephalogram helps to define the location of seizure activity in the brain. Please make sure that he takes complete bed rest. Temporal lobe epilepsy usually results in memory loss.
Anxiety, stress, high BP, low blood sugar, sleep deprivation can cause dizziness and loss of memory, since all the neurological causes have been ruled out.
Please schedule an appointment with his neurologist and discuss these issues with him. Keep us posted!
I had whiplash and have experienced a little neck pain ever since, but the emergency responders said I was okay at the scene of the accident, had me turn my head a bunch of different ways, checked my response etc. Could this mess up my memory? The reason I wonder if it is something else is because I have always been a little scatter-brained, but it has gotten noticably worse. Could this be hormonal? I also have depression and take 50 mg of Zoloft.
