he's been off work a week, but worsened a lot- keeps losing his way
home from familiar places, went into the wrong garage to drop car off
today and swore to them it was the right one; has Btec national yet
needed help to spell 'MY' .......

I know that it is probably nothing, I also know that with the
symptoms of depression he has had in the past it could be something
bad. He can't get a GP appointment for a week (receptionist told him
it wasn't important enough- WTF? chap was in tears as it had take him
ages to get home from our usual supermarket 10 minutes away)

Going to insist on him getting an emergency appointment Monday.

Extra paranoid as my best amtes Mum was dx with dementia at DH's age
(35) and died at 39. But I know something isn't right: his hands have been horribl;e shaky for ages, he keeps forgetting entire conversations (thought it was rudeness tbh) and my instincts are telling me this isn't just a small thing.

Have started a new thread but thanks so much for asking, GP thinks it is his body systems degrading as a result of his employers regularly amending shift hours- they've given him sleeping pills to control his body clock, receommended he getrs a new job (although not many in his field that aren't shifts tbh) and he ahs to go back to see if that helped.
