Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a 34 y/o male. for about the last 10 yrs my memory has been failing me. I cant remember such events as my wedding (4yrs ago) or my child s birth (2yrs ago). I know I was there for both but only because I have been told I was. Sometimes if I remember hard enough I can visualize what is like still photos of the events but I cant remember the event or being there. I also cant remember day to day events. The other day my wife had told me 5 differant times about my appointment and I was still late because I had forgot about it. I have been to differnat doctors and have gotten no where. The last one I saw said I should go to Virgina Mason or U of W to seek help. Any suggestions?
I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. You had been to different doctors and they did not find anything wrong with your memory. That is what you must keep in mind. Not your version of the story. Please. Such self diagnosis creates anxiety and further problems.
Memory issues are quite normal for everyone. If you try (hard, is your version) you will be able to remember everything. Normal. Talk to every adult and almost everyone tell you so. Do not worry. Try and try again. People are busy and preoccupied and that is the reason.
Hope this answers your question. Available for further clarifications. Good luck.
