What can be done to improve memory?!


Question: What can be done to improve memory!?
For the past several months, I have had several undiagnosable symptoms that doctors cannot figure out after suffering a stabbing pain in my head (that was not a migraine)!. After MRIs, MRAs, blood work, etc!., they still haven't figured out anything, but I do have a noticeable decrease in memory retention!.

Are there any vitamins/foods or other remedies that can help improve memory!? I used to have a photogenic memory, could memorize anything, and now just five months later, I misspell common words and if I put down what I'm doing, I completely forget what I was supposed to go back and do!. Even if I take notes, the notes don't jog my memory!.

This isn't old age or anything, lol!. I'm 22, and this didn't start until I got sick a few months ago!. The doctors won't give me any prescription until they know what is wrong, but in the meantime, I have finals coming up and need to remember stuff!!

Like I said, I don't need medical advice about what CAUSED the memory loss, I just need to know how to treat it so I can study!Www@Answer-Health@Com

The one thing i do that helps me the most is association!. This is kinds tuff to explain on stay with me!. It is taking the time to think of a way to remember random thing, kinda like making a little story out of Random word and objects!. ok example!. 5 random objects turtle, high-liter, cup, lip bomb and cheese!. so make up a little story about them like!.!. the TURTLE can in first in a race was so exitled he HIGH-LITTLE his name in the newspaper, and painted it on a CUP!. But after 4 days (forth iteam) he had dry lip from all the racing and used LIP-BOMB that smelled CHEESE!.

Same goes for if you meat someone new of the first time!. look at then (not the color of there eyes) learn there name and think of something about there physical appearance or maybe hand shake that will conest there name to them in you mind!. Ok lets take me for example!. my mane is lily!. now look at my pic!. what do you notice about me!? Maybe you think i have a flower shaped face or I have a soft looking feature that remind you of a lily!. I also spell my mane with all sower case letters, lower case lily!. No one ever has to know how you memorize there name so it can be mean or dirty! Steve give you a nice smile, Steve smiles in the sack! what ever work for you!.

Check out the libary or internet for word assosiation stuff!.

Also play games like brain-age or big brain they are video games!.
Do thing like crossword puzzles and Suduoco to keep you mind shape!.

Mash potatoes supposedly helps you with short term memory but not sure how much fact there is to that!.

Hope i help good luck!

EDIT

I am sorry to here that!. The only other thing I can thing of is just write everything down!. Get a daytimer, iphone , Laptop, what ever works for you and just write down and make note of absolutly everything!. Maybe you could even buy a small tape recorder and just record notes to yourself, conversations you have, and class your in!. This won't help with your memory but at least you can get through a day!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

A simple and effective method is just to use it!.!.!.dial phone numbers instead of calling up names in your phone, Any method of using memory is a sure way to improve itWww@Answer-Health@Com
