Memory Loss
Posted: 31 Jul 2018 19:59
Hello I have just joined the MDS Forum never used a forum before so please be patient.
I was diagnosed with MDS 1 year ago and I am having serious memory and confusion problems has anyone else had similar problems.
I have had various vascular problems before MDS diagnosis ie Heart Attach DVT and pace maker not sure if it could be vascular dementia. My consultant doesnt think there is a link with MDS but if my red blood cell count is low would that not affect my brain processing thoughts etc in some way. Has anyone had similar problems. Or maybe its just old age but I am only 77 ha ha!!!
Thanks
John
