Amangu ago buli kimu weerabira? Ka twogere ku bulwadde buno obwa Transient Global Amnesia (TGA) .

Teebereza maama wo, taata wo, oba omuntu akusingako katono awaka ng'akubuuza mu bwangu nti, "Leero lunaku ki?", "Tuli ludda wa?". Bw’omala okuddamu, baddamu okukubuuza ebibuuzo bye bimu oluvannyuma lw’eddakiika ntono. Naye ekyewuunyisa, bakumanyi bulungi nnyo n’abantu abalala bonna mu nnyumba. Tewali muntu yenna atya nga alaba ekintu nga kino? Balowooza nti, "Oh my God, buno bulwadde bwa bwongo? Buba bwa stroke?" Naye teweeraliikiriranga. Leero twogera ku mbeera eyeetongodde ennyo abantu bangi gye batamanyi, naye nga eraga obubonero obufaananako bwe butyo.

Obulwadde bw’okujjukira obw’ekiseera ekitono mu nsi yonna (TGA) kye ki?

Mu ngeri ennyangu, Transient Global Amnesia (TGA) mbeera mwe wabaawo okufiirwa okujjukira okw’amangu, okw’akaseera obuseera. Ekigambo "ekiyitawo" wano kitegeeza "eky'ekiseera." Kino kitegeeza nti si kya lubeerera. Okubulwa okujjukira kuno kutandika mangu era ebiseera ebisinga kutereera ku bwakyo mu ssaawa ntono.

Embeera eno eya TGA bw’ebaawo, ebintu bibiri ebikulu bibaawo:

1. Obutasobola kukola bijjukizo bipya: Mu busawo, kino tukiyita ``Anterograde Amnesia.'' Ekyo kitegeeza nti tajjukira bintu n'emboozi ezaaliwo mu kiseera kino. Eno y’ensonga lwaki abuuza ebibuuzo bye bimu enfunda n’enfunda.

2. Okwerabira ebibaddewo gye buvuddeko: Kino kiyitibwa ``Retrograde Amnesia.`` Kwe kugamba, obulwa okujjukira ebibaddewo ng’ebula essaawa ntono oba olunaku lumu oba bbiri ekintu ekyo tekinnabaawo.

Naye ekisinga obukulu wano kwe kuba nti omuntu alina embeera eno teyerabira ky’ali, ab’omu maka ge n’emikwano gye bali. Ate era, basobola okukola emirimu egya bulijjo, okugeza, okuvuga mmotoka, wadde emirimu emizibu ng’okulima ensuku. Engeri gye boogera n’okweyisaamu mu bantu tekyuka. Naye bafuna okutabulwa okunene ku kifo we bali, essaawa bwe ziri, n’olunaku lwe luli.

Bubonero ki obulaga nti omuntu alina TGA?

Kikulu nnyo okutegeera embeera eno mu butuufu. Kubanga wadde ng’obubonero buno buyinza okufaananako n’obw’obulwadde obw’amaanyi ennyo, TGA erina engeri ez’enjawulo. Tukimenyewo tukitegeere bulungi.

Ng’oggyeeko obubonero buno obukulu, abantu abamu bayinza n’okufuna obubonero nga:

• Okulumizibwa omutwe
• Okuziyira n’okusiiyibwa
• Okuziyira
• Okweraliikirira n’obutawummula

Ekikulu kiri nti obubonero buno butera okuggwaawo ddala mu ssaawa 1-10 (ebiseera ebisinga nga essaawa 6). Tekitera nnyo, zisobola okumala essaawa 24. Singa okufiirwa okujjukira kweyongera mpolampola oba okumala olunaku olusukka mu lumu, kiyinza obutaba TGA, wabula embeera endala.

Ani asinga okulwala embeera eno?

TGA mbeera ya bbula nnyo. Wabula businga kubeera mu bantu abali wakati w’emyaka 50 ne 80. Abalwadde 75% bali mu myaka gino. Kitera nnyo omuntu atali wansi w’emyaka 40 okufuna TGA.

Okugatta ku ekyo, okunoonyereza okumu kuzudde nti abantu abalina embeera z’obujjanjabi zino wammanga bali mu bulabe obw’okufuna TGA:

• Obulwadde bw’omutima
• Obulwadde bw’omutwe omuzito
• Okwongera ku kolesterol mu musaayi (Hyperlipidemia) .

Kiki ekivaako TGA? Biki ebivaako obulwadde buno?

Nga bwe kyayogeddwako emabegako, ekituufu ekivaako kino tekinnamanyika, naye abasawo balowooza nti kiva ku buzibu obw’akaseera obuseera mu hippocampus, ekitundu ekikulu mu bwongo bwaffe ekikwatagana n’okujjukira n’okuyiga.

Waliwo endowooza bbiri enkulu:

1. Okukendeera kw’omusaayi mu bwongo okumala akaseera (Ischemia): Kiba ng’omusuwa oguzibikira okumala akaseera.

2. Enkola efaananako n’okukonziba mu bwongo: Eringa okukwata akatono, naye nga tewali bubonero bwa bweru bulabika.

Era kizuuliddwa nti TGA esobola okubaawo oluvannyuma lw’ebintu ebimu. Bino tubiyita `Triggers`.

• Okwenyigira mu dduyiro ow’amaanyi oba okukola emirimu egy’amaanyi.
• Situleesi ey’amaanyi oba okusannyalala mu nneewulira (e.g., okuwulira amawulire amabi) .
• Okubeera mu mazzi agannyogoga ennyo oba agookya mu bwangu (e.g., okunaabira mu mazzi agannyogoga) .
• Obulumi obw’amaanyi.
• Okwegatta.
• Okukola Valsalva maneuver: Kino kiringa okukwata omukka n’okusika ennyo.

Eddagala nalyo liyinza okuleeta TGA?

Yee. Eddagala n’eddagala erimu nabyo bisobola okuvaako okubulwa okujjukira okw’ekika kino okw’akaseera obuseera.

• Okunywa omwenge ekisusse.
• Okumira empeke ezimu ez’okwebaka (Barbiturates) ezisukkiridde.
• Okukozesa eddagala erimu.
• Okumira dose entono ez’eddagala erimu ery’okweraliikirira (Benzodiazepines).

TGA ne stroke kintu kimu?

Eno ndowooza nkyamu n’okutya abantu aba bulijjo. TGA si stroke oba mini-stroke (TIA). Obubonero bwa byombi buyinza okubutabula kubanga bujja mangu. Kyokka, waliwo enjawulo entegeerekeka wakati w’ebintu bino byombi.

Singa wabaawo okusannyalala, buli sikonda ebalwa. N’olwekyo, bw’olaba obubonero bw’okusannyalala, kikulu nnyo okugenda mu ddwaaliro okufuna obujjanjabi mu bwangu.

Omusawo azuula atya mu butuufu TGA?

Tewali kukebera kwonna ku TGA. Omusawo ajja kugaana embeera endala zonna ez’amaanyi eziyinza okuvaako obubonero obufaananako bwe butyo. Kino kiyitibwa "okuzuula okuggyibwako."

Kino okukikola, omusawo wo ajja kukola bino wammanga:

• Okukola okukeberebwa kw’omubiri okujjuvu n’okukeberebwa kw’obusimu.
• Okukebera obwongo (CT oba MRI) okugaana embeera ng’okusannyalala, ekizimba oba okuvaamu omusaayi.
• Okukebera omusaayi (Comprehensive metabolic panel) (okukebera ebintu ng’omunnyo mu mubiri ne ssukaali).
• Okukebera eddagala (Toxicology screen).

Oluvannyuma lw’okukebera kuno kwonna okukakasa nti tewali buzibu bulala omusawo y’ajja okumaliriza nti eno TGA.

Bujjanjabi ki obuweebwa TGA?

Amawulire agasinga obulungi gali nti TGA tekyetaagisa bujjanjabi bwonna. Embeera eno ejja kuggwaawo ddala ku bwayo mu ssaawa 24 zokka. Okujjukira kwo kujja kudda mu mbeera eya bulijjo.

Abasawo batera okukuwa amagezi okusigala mu ddwaaliro mu kiseera kino eky’okubulwa okujjukira okulaba oba obubonero obulala bubaawo n’okukakasa nti tewali mbeera ya bujjanjabi yonna.

Waliwo ebizibu byonna ebiyinza okuva mu TGA okumala ebbanga eddene?

TGA ebiseera ebisinga tereeta buzibu bwonna bwa bbanga ddene. Abalwadde batereera ddala. Wabula tebajjukira kintu kyonna ekyaliwo mu kitundu kya TGA. Essaawa ezo entono zirabika nga zigenda ziggwaawo mu bulamu bwabwe. Kyokka, ebintu ebirala bye twajjukira nga omukolo tegunnabaawo bidda mu ssaawa 24 zokka.

Okuddamu kwa TGA nakyo tekitera kubaawo. Abantu abatakka wansi wa 10% abafuna TGA bajja kuddamu okugifuna mu bulamu bwabwe.

Ate era, TGA tereeta kufiirwa kujjukira okumala ebbanga eddene, gamba ng’okubulwa amagezi . TGA mbeera ya kaseera buseera ejja n’egenda mu bwangu. Obulwadde bw’okubulwa amagezi bulwadde obweyongera okujjukira mpolampola okumala ekiseera.
