As someone who didn’t do drugs, at age 40 I started forgetting mid sentence what I was saying. Multiple times each day I forget why I walked into a room; sometimes I can’t even remember walking into the room or where I left to go there. I get lost in the grocery store where I’ve shopped weekly for 5 years. I used to have an excellent memory. Now I find myself sitting at a stop light at an intersection I pass weekly, and can’t remember where I am, what I’m doing there, or even where I’m going. It can be pretty disconcerting.

And, yes, the thought of Obama care is even more alarming.

Great post. Now I just have to figure out where I should save it, so I don’t forget where I filed it.

Now what was I doing?

If you are serious, you better get it checked out. There are all kinds of reasons for dementia, including lack of B vitamins. It could be thyroid problems, toxic exposure, infections, tumor, drug reactions, and an assortment of causes that can be corrected. Even poor oxygen can cause memory loss. Please see a doctor. My husband has Alzheimer’s/Parkinsons, so this disease is up close and personal for me. Keep in mind that Alzheimer’s is only one form of dementia, so there’s a good chance you can be fixed up and raring to go. Ginko Biloba, along with Vitamin B 6 are good. Other poster might have more advice, though it seems the majority of them have dementia... ;)
