I swear, when someone's talking to me now, I can barely understand what's happening. I know I'm no spring chicken anymore but I wish I was 16 again lol when I experience things it's like it's a memory or like I'm at the back of my head. It's hard to explain. Every thing here is getting gradually worse over the years. Suffice to say, I'm not looking forward to my 40's..

That being said I feel like I'm making a big deal out of something most women my age just get on with and put up with for the rest of their lives without complaining

I don't have a solution, but just wanted to say that doctors can be very unreliable.

I've been told that I'm the textbook case of a healthy man in my late 20s, all the while suffering from balance issues, surprise naps, confusion, weakness, and inability to properly parse speech some 1-4 days of the week.

Obviously one should still listen to the doctors, for who else can we rely on, but to me your situation sounds very "normal" which is definitely not a good thing!

Perhaps get a second opinion by a private doctor? I'm considering it by now...

Best of luck!
