Anybody else have blackout memory issues?

I have had a lot of side effects from my RAI 131 treatment. I noticed increasing memory fog since my second treatment of RAI 131 for thyroid cancer. Scary to not remember simple things, events, names. Not given any encouraging news that it will get better. I just hope it doesn't get worse. @cioli wonderful that your transplant was successful. I hope you have some resolution with your memory fog. Is it a permanent side effect to the medication? Best of luck to you.

Sometimes it can cause memory fog, but it's also possible that some of the trauma we experience in treatment and situations like this ... can linger and affect us. Consider talking with someone about all your experience, like a Chaplain, faith support, therapist or support group. Just talking about our experiences can help process it mentally as well.
Sending hugs!
