I had 2 brain surgeries for a tumor a little over 5 years ago and I still have short term memory loss, I do remember back after the second surgery when things I said made absolutely no sense whatsoever. I am told that it took about 3 months for that to pass (I had to ask someone who was with me because I honestly couldn't remember!) I think the only way to rid yourself of short term memory loss it so just be patient and keep trying to remember leaving notes around the house seems to help me quite well, even after 5 years I'm still doing this!

God Bless and keep the Faith
