Mortifying, though.

I took a med a few years ago which also diminished my word ability. It's improving, though I still have some aphasia. I frequently have to describe the word or proper noun that I mean, even though it's just on the tip of my tongue (but won't come). So yes, it's quite possible for this to be chemically induced.
(See, right there ... I typed dimished when I know it should be diminished! It affects my previously never-thought-twice-about great spelling.)
