Avatar m tn If all brain related causes (transient ischemic attack, disorders of hypothalamus, dementia and multiple sclerosis, head injury etc) are ruled out then Vit B12 deficiency, chronic fatigue syndrome, sleep disorders (by sleep studies), depression, use of certain drugs, and certain types of seizures (where memory loss is the predominant symptom) should be investigated for as the cause of memory loss.
Avatar n tn About an hour later he suffered a brief episode (1-2 min) of short term memory loss. He could not remember the weekend holiday or do sums. Other than feeling cold he did not exhibit any physical symptoms. He had another episode about three weeks later. A neurologist examined him and found nothing but set up an EEG. He has had no other episodes. Any suggestions as to what to ask during/after the EEG or what the potential cause might be? Thank you.

787406 tn?1339203183 I also started having memory problems and stuttering trying to find words two weeks before the EEG was done, which also started after the finger thing feeling in the hair and brain and the loss of focus. these last 10 to 15 minutes. The ones with blind spots are usually only there 1 to 3 minutes. I have been to 2 neurologist and they can't seem to come to a decision. First one did a EEG and said I had a focal over left and right temporal lobe with the left being the worst, MRI was normal.
Avatar f tn Epileptic acticity causes scarring of tissue; the hippocampus is unfotuantely very prone to scar as a result of seizures, and is often an onset sight for refractory complex partial seizures, if that is what your brother in law has. If he has refractory epilepsy, he could talk to his doctor about a possible surgical workup, see if he is a candidate for surgery....there are different procedures for different seizure types, locations of seizures, etc. etc.
Avatar m tn This was not always the case because in chilhood my memory was preety good since I remembereed most of the reading that I did, but not the same in college. I am currently doing HR and it demands that you have a good memory. I can remember numbers, but not the same when it comes to paragraphs. I am overweight but I was like this since my childhood. I also recently was diagnosed with acanthosis nigricans, which is a skin diesease. Please help me find out a cure to my memory problem urgently.
Avatar m tn Well the back pain and memory loss maybe a psychological problem and you are just imagining it or in other case is not connected with masturbation. The next point is masturbation for 3 or more times a day well, normally masturbation is not bad except in cases when you are obsessed with it. Maybe you need to visit a psychologist to talk about your insecurities and try to find a GF to supplement the number of masturbations a day with normal sex.
Avatar n tn It indicated that half of people undergoing bypass surgery developed memory or thinking problems in the days following it, and that these problems were usually still evident five years later.

Avatar m tn I believe I may be experiencing late stage HIV symptoms (persistent headache, loss of appetite and taste, weight loss, vision blurry, loss of memory and concentration, hair loss and a lot of weakness), I am not sure when exactly my exposure was...I have only had unprotected vaginal sex a few times men over the last 6 years. I recently completed a HIV 1/2 Antibody p24 Ag test and it came back non-reactive.
Avatar n tn I have never heard of any antidepressants being associated with memory loss, but everyone reacts differently to these meds so I suppose anything is possible. Are you sure this memory loss is not due to another medical condition you may not know about? If it makes you feel any better, I used to take Effexor XR at 300Mgs a day for 4 years and did not have any lasting memory problems. I can say that now that I am 40 I have noticed that I have a little trouble remembering many things.
Avatar m tn i have been having some memory loss since my crash but i dont know if it is from medication cos i was only taking warfarin. at least that's all i remember taking.
Avatar m tn Hi there. You have short term memory loss and you are young. The causes for this loss of memory could be many like lack of sleep, hurried up routine, psychogenic memory loss after a stressful and life threatening event, vitamin B1 deficiency, certain drug abuse like PCP, LSD and cocaine. Some prescription drugs can also be the culprit like barbiturates, tricyclic anti depressants etc. brain infections like encephalitis and head trauma are other rare causes.
Avatar m tn In case you don't get a reply, your pharmacist likely knows the answers.

4965579 tn?1404434338 This is because if I continue to masturbate past the one day, I hold the after-effect symptoms longer and they further in depth to nausea, loss of appetite etc. As life teaches us eventually, finding sex elsewhere OR in a relationship doesn't hold all the answers and sometimes becomes a whole 'nother mess. Yes, it would help to have a partner and I want that because it would help in the picture of "masturbation", I have long understood that.
Avatar f tn Does masturbation causes any health problems and also does it causes memory and concentration problems?
Avatar n tn e once a week on an average then as years passed ,it went up to twice a week till today,for the past few years the alternate medicine doctors in media around my environment started penalizing masturbation act as a sin and it will ruin men health they say the side include,memory loss,suspecting things like wondering about where we place the key chain,e.t.
Avatar n tn You need a proper assessment and investigation here since there can be many causes for memory loss, headache and dizziness. Most common causes of short term memory and concentration impairment are excessive stress, psychological reason, recent head injury, certain medications, hormonal imbalance and Alzheimer’s disease (if you are in old age). I would recommend you to see a neurologist who can evaluate the details of your case and could better determine the insight of your situation.
