I've been having problems with my memory but what worries me most is that I have trouble with vocabulary. I have trouble remembering the correct contextual words to use during conversation. Is this a (common) symptom of MS and is there a way of resolving/improving this symptom

I was diagnosed with MS 4 years ago. I took copaxone for 6 months but 3 years ago.

Thanks

I had the exact same problem when I had my only (so far) attack. I would be in a conversation, have my thoughts together, open my mouth to respond and get half way through the sentence and just flounder. Words would just fly out of my mind.

It got much better as the other symptoms subsided but I still occasionally have memory lapses.

I have no real suggestions but wish you luck.
