Re: Light headed, short term memory loss.

[Guest guest]

I've had similar experiences with light-headedness. It's happened maybe

three times ( I am 15 months post-op). My vision is also affected. If I

focus on something, I see a blank area in the middle. I must talk to my

doctor about this, I know, but just wondered if anyone else had their vision

affected.
