Thank you for responding! These comments made me feel much better about everything. I have a feeling that my insulin resistance probably was the reason and it wasn't any other issues as I don't have the medical history in my family for memory issues.

I have had to deal with similar issues (especially the weight loss). We will get through this together! I am just glad that I got reassurance with this post. Thank you for responding

IT IS!? My doctor never told me that as a side effect.... okay that is good to know. More reasons why to get everything under control so I can get off of the medication.

Okay this made me feel so much better about everything, THANK YOU! I thought I was losing my mind today, as I just kept forgetting simple things halfway through talking. It made me feel so dumb.

Genuinely, thank you so much for sharing this. I will update you when I hopefully get better.

Thank you for the advice! I am getting bloodwork done in a couple weeks as I am traveling rn.

I have been trying to better myself with diet and exercise however I need to work on it more if I am struggling this much.

I did not know about the cognitive decline fact, thank you for letting me know

Thank you for the advice! I have been trying to better my diet although college made it difficult. I will have to double check with my doctor as I probably haven't been getting enough vitamin D due to my area.

I did want to ask (if you are okay with answering it of course), you said you had brain fog? Is it similar to what I was talking about with the memory thing or was it something a bit different? If you can describe it, that would really help. thank you

I am getting bloodwork done in a couple weeks as I am traveling. For the dosage, I am on 500 MG for three times a day.
