I suspect that for me, what's going to make more of a difference is what I didn't learn because I was too tired. But it's hard to say what might have been.
Sounds to me like that might be more a matter of functional impairment at the time than actual brain damage. If your short term memory wasn't getting transferred to long term, you wouldn't remember. OTOH, if you didn't remember those years because of massive brain damage, you wouldn't remember the years before your dark period very well either.LinkC wrote:I know I have residual impaired memory (tests confirm...) and there's a number of years just prior to CPAP of which I have no recollection whatsoever. I call it my "dark period". My current memory capacity has improved dramatically since CPAP, but the dark period has not...and I anticipate it won't.
