But has anyone taking Imuran noticed they lose the ability to remember certain words and people's names? I can usually come up with it but it takes 3 or 4 minutes. Really embarrassing. Just started the last couple of weeks. I DON'T LIKE IT!!! Love, T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really appreciate it. How are you doing? I think of you so often, but just never seem to find the few minutes it takes to write. Did Glenda give you the hug I sent you????? Love you, T.

Did Glenda give you the hug I > sent you????? > Love you, > T. > Hi , I've been thinking about you a lot lately also. Loved seeing the pix of you and everyone else at the reunion. How are you doing now? You go first! I'm o.k. Got my Enbrel on Thurs and took my first shot on Friday. Gosh, now I understand why my doc and the pharmacy thought that our HMO wouldn't cover the cost! It's ridiculous and for the price...it had just better work. My ears have been giving me such fits that I have wanted to hack them off my head. The lesions are finally starting to heal now. Arthritis has been getting in on the act, and even my eyes sorta' did their thing again also. Not a good month. But---things are going to get better now! I refuse to let this get me down too low. Too much to do...too many people relying on me to give in! I know that you know the feeling. I know Glenda has tried to call me since she's been home, but it is very hard to get me on the phone. So, no hug yet, not even a phone hug. Plus, with the way my ears have been, talking on the phone is a pain--literally. How is your little Trooper? I think of him a lot. Take care , and hopefully better days are ahead for you. Love, Sharon ===== __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 22, 2001 Report Share Posted September 22, 2001 T., I'm not on Imuran, But I can't remember words or peoples names. Shoot half the time I can't remember my own name. And if you think that's scary. I was going to my sons house a couple of weeks ago. Only five miles away. And for awhile I forgot how to get there. Took a wrong turn. So now my husband has a hissy if I go out on my own.

So if you get lost (and I did all the time BEFORE RP), you'll find new scenery and houses to look at. I let my husband drive too often, cause I'm afraid that I'll hit something or worse yet, someone. But I have to just be extra careful and take my time, and I usually get there...eventually. Don't worry about it, there's not much you can do anyway, so relax and go with it!
