    Default Wrong Words

    I am a 55 year old female in good health. It seems that increasingly more often I am using the wrong word in a sentence. It used to be an uncommon annoyance but now it is becoming noticeable to my family and it concerns me. For example, I will mean to say the word "vitamin" and the word "valentine" pops out instead or the word "camera" comes out instead of "calendar". The other day, I asked my grandson if he liked his "root beer" and it came out "roast beef". Everyone gets a chuckle when I do this but since I don't know when one of these words is going to jump out of my mouth, I am afraid it will happen at work and I am a postal carrier and I interface with the public a lot. The weird thing is that the word I say always has the proper first letter. I don't get it. Does anyone know what could cause this? Thanks for reading.

    Default Re: Wrong Words

    Electro Hypersensitivity is an interesting idea to explain my symptoms. It's definitely better than the ideas of early Alzheimer's Disease that I was imagining. I will be sure and mention this to my physician when I go in for my appointment. Thank you for your reply.

    Thumbs up Re: Wrong Words

    Many patients receiving renal allografts become identified simply
    as recipients of kidney transplantation. All subsequent events
    involving changes in renal function are attributed to the
    process and natural history of transplantation itself: acute and chronic
    rejection, immunosuppressive drug nephrotoxicity, graft vasculature
    thrombosis or stenosis, ischemia, infection, and lymphoproliferative
    disorders.
