"how are mememories stored in the brain?"
I am really interested in that, due to the fact that I have been re-training my brain for 9 years due to my stroke -- the more I know about how the brain works the more affective I could work.

Hi...I'm on briefly checking email since today is the urologist visit early. I hope this passes soon, too.
The memory question is an interesting one. With CFIDS, you have varying degrees of short term memory loss. When it first hit, it was significant. I couldn't remember the names of things, how to make a sandwich..things like that. Because I'd studies what we knew at that time in grad school about memory storage, I knew a little bit about how to get short term memory events into long term memory and have used those tricks to remember more things. If I do something quickly, like when I'm taking an antibiotic in the evening, such as now, I still have to keep a chart to remember if I took it, though.
I didn't realize you'd had a stroke. Do you have more about it in your blog profile or in the blog? I'm too dizzy to search it right now, but will.
