I am 29years old and have had a TraumaticAmputation - traumatic Post-traumatic stress disorder Brain Injury for 11 years. I have been pretty lucky, because even with my short term memoryMemory loss Mental status tests problems, my confusionConfusion Delirium and my loss of direction, I have still been able to graduate from college and maintain a perfessional degree. However, my husband has recently noticed that my short term memoryMemory loss Mental status tests and confusionConfusion Delirium has gotten a lot worse and I am curious as to if the effects of my Brain Injury worsen with time. I thought that in time, my brain would learn new ways to get around the damaged part of my brain and get better at remembering things and doing things, although recently it just seems to be getting a lot worse. Does anyone know the answer to this question? Does anyone have any advice in increasing my short term memory after 11 years of a brain injury? Thank you!!
