Hello,

Mild cognitive impairment should be considered in your case. In order to have a correct diagnosis is necessary an evaluation by your Neurologist and by neuropsychological tests.

A brain MRI also is necessary to evaluate any structural brain condition. Discuss with your Neurologist for these issues.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
