Will Diabetics Cause Memory Problems Or Anger?
My husband is 32 years old and has diabetes. Sometimes we get in arguments because he thinks he told me something or he thinks he did something that I have no recollection. So either I m having blackouts or he s having delusions. I was wondering if diabetes can cause a malfunction in memory or cause delusions? Sometimes he swear that he put things in one place and I find them in another or he remembers things differently than they actually happened. But what he remembers is truth to him and he gets very angry when I tell him he is wrong. This is beyond the normal marriage argument, sometimes is scary that he thinks he has an interaction with me and I tell him it is not so, he gets very defensive and angry. Should we both get a CATScan or something? Or am I over reacting

Dear sir
It is proved with out a doubt that diabetes causes axonal degeneration of nerves, these patients are more prone to get alziehmer disease.
The newly formed type 3 diabetes comprises of patients with diabetes and alziehmer disease.
Even there will be sprouts of anger and memory problems in diabetes as it is associated with various psychiatric problems.
thirdly it needs attention from psychiatrist.
Thanks
