Fortunately, I haven't had any blackouts, thank God, but I have the worst time remembering words while talking, and sometimes it reaches almost comical proportions, or so I chose to think (otherwise I would be scared to death). Or I'll try to be talking about something and instead of saying a word I'll say a word that rhymes with the word I meant to say. I surprise myself with the whoppers that come out of my mouth now. I sure hope I don't forget where I am when I'm driving. That kind of thing only happens when I'm exposed to toxic chemicals...breathing them in. It passes when I get fresh air. I think those of us with FM have to be very careful in areas with high pollution.
