I get that way too, although I don't work. I can imagine how hard it must be at work. This morning I was walking around the kitchen trying to remember what I was doing. I went in to the bathroom when I really meant to go to the pantry to get the oatmeal. I stood in the bathroom, decided to blow my nose and then went back out to the kitchen and did three other things before I remembered I was supposed to be making oatmeal.

I can laugh about it because it is just oatmeal, but I sure got hungry by the time I made it.

If you feel comfortable, you can talk to your supervisor. You could just say that you are taking some meds and they are causing you to lose focus sometimes. Make sure you emphasize that you are not putting your patients at risk.

Hopefully it is side effect related and will pass soon.
