Hello,
Well, definitely your mind is on other things but when was the last time you checked with your doctor for a physical checkup and perhaps a little bloodwork.
Someone your age being that forgetful should have the following blood work done,
THYROID PROFILE, CBC w/differential, liver and kidney function tests/enzymes,
inflammatory markers such as ESR and CRP, Vit. B12, Vitamin D, & your electrolytes, as well as a
URINALYSIS.
Have you been started on any medications over the past week or 2 for
depression, anxiety,
insomnia, etc because those drugs could be causing side effects as well.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Dariush Saghafi, Neurologist
