Im 58 and think my memory is going

[Pancaked]

It's not just brain fog, I suffer from that too but thats more a woolly slightly disorganised sort of feeling. I am forgetting appointments eg something I was aware of in the morning, I will then forget to attend in the afternoon. If I have a tidy up, I then can't recall where I tidied things away to. I have lost my sense of time eg. I thought I'd made a phone call this morning, but turns out it was yesterday. Texting a friend yesterday and she told me her dental appt had been cancelled, we then exchanged another line each of text about other things, and I then asked how her dental appointment had gone. It is starting to worry me. What do people think? Is this normal for a post menopausal woman of my age??

You’re very welcome to the info. I couldn’t believe I was referred either. Even better, I had a home visit from a lady from the memory clinic for the first stage-she did the tests my dad had when his Parkinson’s was diagnosed. If it’s any consolation, one or two of my friends say they forget what they are saying mid sentence, too. It’s not just one word for me, it’s the whole topic. t must admit my GP hospital Trust are very good. I was actually seen by the ‘Young Persons Memory Clinic’ - I hadn’t heard of that clinic even though we were there at the geriatric one regularly with dad!
