Cognitive Effects of Cushing’s Disease

 

Bringing Awareness to the Cognitive Effects of Cushing’s Disease   by Melissa neve, M.A., CCC-SLP

While perusing Facebook before work one morning,I read a post from a close friend. She posted a link (Cognitive decline in patients with Cushing's syndrome) entitled “Cognitive Decline in Patients with Cushing’s Syndrome.” Her commentary read, “What I want to know is why….?

He understands and the kids think it is funny when I can’t think of what the “refrigerator” is called or I… just stop talking in the middle of a sentence because I plum forgot what I was JUST talking about and say “UM” repeatedly. Or twist my words into something completely different like “fart smones” (*smart phones*). I get extremely annoyed that I can’t remember how to spell things, too!!
