In reply to what in my mix could be causing cog impairments?, posted by B2Chica on May 2, 2011, at 12:41:51
All of them with the exception of Adderall, which should actually help to improve it.
It could also be progression of whatever the true underlying problem is. Something the meds do not address. The meds are only for symptoms, not curing what is broken.
Word finding difficulties and difficult to manage psychiatric symptoms are, just as an example, almost universal with anyone who has the organisms associated with Lyme or Lyme-like conditions. Overgrowth of candida can also cause those symptoms. But if you are wanting to point a finger solely at meds, 3 of them look guilty to me, with gabapentin and perphenazine probably being the most guilty.
But who knows. Just my gut instincts for whatever it's worth.
