Please Help!! Very Worried

I am 28 year old mother of two. I consider myself to be intelligent. Howver, within the last two years I have noticed that I have problems saying the words that I mean to say. For example I will try to say "Don't touch that it's HOT!" and instead it will come out "Don't touch that it's COLD".

I was ok with dealing with those, and everyone around me just thought it was one of those personality quirks. Recently though it's not just saying the opposite of what I mean, I now have trouble remembering things like, what I did at a previous job, or what my main career goal was in college.

I became increasingly worried a few nights ago when I was in the middle of making fried chicken (something I've done plenty of times in the past) When I suddenly couldn't remember what to do. I became very upset and decided to just stop and go and take a relaxing shower. Then I realized that I hadn't taken off my clothes and had gotten into the shower with all of my clothes on.

Even though I completely thought that I had taken them off. After the shower my daughter asked me what was for dinner, and I told her that we had already eaten. When she asked what we ate I replied "Fried chicken". Which of course we hadn't eaten. But I really had a memory of use eating it. I could even smell it in the kitchen although nothing  had been cooked in my kitchen that day.

I do get migraines about 5 times a year and occasionally I will have aura's with them.

If I need to add anything else please let me know!!

Thanks

Sharon- very worried!

I agree wih Selma just make sure you dont leave anything out. And if he dont listen then find another doctor that will make sure somebody finds out what is happening to you. TRY not to stress yourself out about it. It may make it worse.

Dont be afraid to find out...finding out with me made me ready to fight this and get rid of it..let that be your power to get your answers...not know is worse than knowing.

Good Luck in getting your answers

p.s. this site is great for is amazing if you need to talk no matter what you find out. Its help me and my children alot.

I know u r probably more afraid to find out then  worried, anad I know u r very worried.

Please find a dr and get a complete work up to get a dx, so u can get treated......it can be something as simple as needing a vitamin......try and relax and not make it the worst sinerio......
I have been having some similar issues, not the same degree.....I also am not making light of ur issues......but to fixate and stress may make them worse.

Please see a dr and tell him everything u mentioned here!
Good luck
Godspeed

Yes I would have them check for an a MRI it may not be a pituitary tumor but it may be some where else in your head...My symptoms started with a migrain I cant get to go away with vomiting nausea blackouts, and lately the memory loss just started.

So I would definitely have them check to see whats going on,,,thats not good sweety. It never hurts to check just to even rule it out.

Let me know what your doctors say.
