I'm trying to know more about loss of verbal memory. I was planning to get brain surgery to fix my seizures until I was told it would results in permanent loss of my verbal memory. The doctor wasn't much help in explaining what losing one's verbal memory looks like. I know it's different for each person but all he said was I would have trouble with some words. He wouldn't say anything else... Just some words. I was wondering if that would be 20 - 30 words or more like 200 - 300 words. He would only say "some" words. I asked if there was an average amount say for every 20 people who have the surgery. He wouldn't say.
Has anyone had an operation that resulted in verbal memory loss or knows someone who has? The doctors gave me only a 50/50 chance the surgery would fix the seizures, so me trading my verbal memory with those odds has me thinking twice before agreeing to operate.
Anyone here have more info or details about verbal memory?
