The Brain

[Guest dionna]

i hear about the brain fog and cognitive impairment all the time... i don't know where this would fit but...

i was wondering if any of you have changes in your handwriting or anything like that. my changes all the time. i don't think i have heard of anyone say anything about their handwriting.

and while i am on the subject of the brain:

i forgot to put an oven mitt on my hand before getting food out of the oven TWICE... and yeap i have the scarS to prove it. have any of you done anything like that? if so... how do you keep from forgetting things like that? the oven mitt even sits right there at the oven.

thanks,

Dionna,

Yes, I have changes in my handwriting. Sometimes I can write "normally" but other times my writing is very sloppy and there is nothing I can do about it. It's like I start losing fine motor skills or something. But eventually (sometimes days later) it comes back.

Hmm, I also have very variable handwriting. I never thought about that connection, but I always have found it odd that sometimes my handwriting is very clear and other times it is horrible. I am left-handed, so good penmanship was a struggle for me from day 1.
