My dad reads conspiracy sites and especially in the last few weeks is always shouting about how artificial sweeteners in drinks cause brain damage, Parkinsons, etc. I don't drink pop nowadays anyway because I don't like it much and the dentist told me it would make my sensitive teeth worse. I used to drink it a lot when I was a kid though, and now I've noticed my concentration is quite bad on and off, and it's not just when I'm worried either. :wacko:
He was shouting about it today and it must have drawn my attention to it because I realised I was making obvious mistakes in what I was typing. My spelling and punctuation is normally excellent, people have commented on how good it is. I'm also failing Maths, but that's always been my worst subject anyway.
Could this have affected me? I was at the doctors last week with my nonexistant lymphoma :redface:, so surely I can't have anything that bad or he would have noticed? I haven't got any physical symptoms. I don't shake apart from my hands very slightly when I'm really freaking out, and certainly not other times. I don't think my ability to do maths and things is getting any worse either, it's just not improving as much as I would like it to!
