Hello,
I have recently had an MRI of the spine and neck but haven't received the results nor have I gotten a dx yet.
My question is this: Has anyone experienced confusion? or would this be categorized as memory deficit, or something else?
For example, I was in the shower and I suddenly didn't know what I was supposed to do, it did come back after a minute or two while the water washed over me. On another occasion, I was stopped at the stop sign and didn't know what I was supposed to do ext...turn left or turn right and let's not forget, where was I going?)...and this is usually the route I take every time I go out? So, I turned left which turned out to be the wrong way! But I did eventually figure it out.
However, these two scenarios really thru me for a loop. It really rattled me and I couldn't get these incidences out of my mine for some time afterwards. And they were just two of many others like it.
Has anyone else experienced this? What does it mean? Is it an MS symptom??

! Since I had nowhere to turn around or pull off to stop at that time (except the side of the road) I continued to drive and after a minute or so I realized where I was. But talk about scared - I was terrified there for a second or so.
. I was able to get logical (amazing I know) and see that the mile markers numbers were going up (the way I needed them to in order to get home) so I made myself continue driving. And I got home in spite of myself 
.
around the house confusion is there also. The best tactic for me is a very ridge routine in doing things. Thankfully my children are grown and my DH knows to not interrupt me when I am doing anything. Confusion still happens but thankfully nothing major has gone wrong.
