If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

I don't know if its my personality or the AS, but I am horrible in remembering days and what happened on what days. I'm so "in the Now", and I try to forget the past as fast as possible usually lol

Word finding difficulties can be a hallmark of some neurological disorders, but then equally they can be just simply the result of too much stress or pain, including that involved in having a disorder like AS.
It should be something you tell your doctor on your next visit, but not necessarily something to go all out and get tests and brain MRIs for unless there are other things going on that also give concern for potential neurological problems.

I frequently get names and words mixed up. I will remember in a few minutes what I was trying to say. My daughter's name is Sandy and my granddaughters name is Summer, I am always switching their names. I start to say "SSS...." and who knows what might come out of my mouth. Of course, Im older, so I can blame it on old age.

Hey there Shammypup
First of all welcome to kickas. Memory????? oh, that's a big one with a lot of us. Don't panic, discuss it with your doc next time. Reviewing your med list may find the culprit. With my "brain flatuants" it's a mix of meds and age. I make no appologies for my lapses in conciousness anymore and anyone who matters laughs it off with me.

Thank you, everybody, for your responses!! I think pain and tiredness really are the contributing factor. Not to mention age.
