Is this menopause - or something else.

[walkersareback]

In the last two months I have twice completely forgotten things that were in my diary - despite talking about them the day before. One was a comedy show and the other was the cinema on Friday night - I only realised yesterday. We have a local cinema where we buy the tickets in advance at the beginning of the month - so I've also wasted money!

Is this normal meno brain fog/forgetfulness or should I get it checked out in case it's something else? I am 55 and menopausal.

I don't think I've forgotten anything else - but how would I know! I'm trying to keep it light but freaking out a bit inside.
I am a bit scared it might be something else.

I think it’s pretty normal. I used to be ‘on it’ now I’m very forgetful. Things just fall out of my head. It does feel weird though and a bit unsettling.

Thank you for your reply - gives me a bit of comfort that it's not just me.
