Three midterms this week, two of them tomorrow. I need my memory back! Long-term memory and problem-solving are not an issue, so clinical work is fine. Putting hundreds of pages of notes and text into new memory and organizing the info so as to be able to write essay questions on midterms - not so good.
But on the upside, I'm not throwing up anymore. It's best to submit exams that are clean and dry. Professors prefer it.

Does chemo destroy neural pathways or make your hippocampus lazy? What's the memory issue? Do things like fish oil and Gingko help? What about placebos? They are supposed to be very effective, maybe your doc can give you a scrip?
j/k sorry about ur braincell, glad you're not feeling ill.

It's not quite clear how it does damage ... PET scans show major differences in brain function and location of activity during and after chemo. I suspect the brain has to be trained to use new pathways afterward. So forcing myself to keep at the academics is good, sort of intensive physiotherapy for the brain, but like most PT it's bloody uncomfortable. I'm definitely doing fish oil and other supplements. Hoping things come back.

Yeah...not smoking pot every day would probably also help ... and getting enough sleep...and yeah, better diet wouldn't go amiss:P
@ Tril: i think it's probably my normal too...but I only notice it when I have to interact with people at a deeper level than going to the shop. Fortunately, as it stands I only have to interact in a professional capacity a couple of days a week :p @ Griff: 7 hours plus a lunch break with people ....*deep shudder* Y'know, I think I am just incredibly lazy. I just really prefer to muck about at home with my dog and my interwebz. I never really fancy anything that isn't ,mucking about at home with my dog and my interwebz...even if I do end up enjoying myself when I have to...

Oh and, as is often the case whenI am really not looking forward to a class, the lesson went quite well and fair zipped past.
