May I ask what medication it is? I don't know what I'm taking that might be causing such problems (I take so many things), but I have the same struggles. As far as reading, I take notes as I read. And I write other things down that I need to remember. I also try to keep stuff in the same place, so I won't lose it. As far as driving, definitely don't add to your possible distractions by playing the radio, talking on the phone, etc. You might need to drive a bit more slowly. Also, maybe your pdoc will have some ideas. Let me know!
