I know how you feel Jewel

its a one hellava horrible when your memory's no better than a goldfish'!
Cellphone reminders are a lifesaver for things that need to be done daily, like take meds.
Since I quit my meds my working/short term memory is back at full capacity, (so it definitly was not caused by my fillings) but I have permanent gaps in my long term memory. Its very upsetting and I hope that you don't have the same problem
