According to my Bio-Imagining Analysis (July 27, 2001), several areas in my body were stressed. One of those areas was 'Synapses'. I am certainly not qualified to explain scientifically this phenomenon, but I can share with you in practical terms how I was affected. It included an inability to concentrate, short-term memory loss, word-finding difficulties, and others.
One of my naturopaths told me "Barring a miracle, you will not regain your mental facilities." Though I continue to improve I am still plagued with this, but certainly not to the degree I was in July of 2001 - the time of my
CRASH.
At my worst, I had virtually no short-term memory. I had to write down what supplements I took at the same time I was swallowing them because 2 minutes later I couldn't remember if I had taken them. Also, when talking to someone I couldn't come up with the simplest of words to explain something. And too, I would have much difficulty concentrating on what someone was telling me. Oftentimes they would have to repeat themselves. Filling out order forms was almost an impossible task for me. Writing a check required much concentration and oftentimes it was returned because I had failed to sign it.
I still have some difficulty processing information, especially if I'm talking on the phone. If I'm talking on the phone to someone who speaks fast then virtually none of it gets processed. My reading comprehension has improved some since my
CRASH.
