Why Is He Not Able To Remember Things After Waking Up From Sleep?
My husband has fallen asleep twice today for a short period of time and when waking up does not remember anything that has happened in the last 24 hours. He does then remember after being awake a few minutes. He has been under a lot of stress. What could be causing this? I am very worried. He feels fine. No pain
Is he taking any antianxiety or antidepressent medicines? such can happen under influence of medicines. Also sometimes soon after awakening from sleep even normal person can not remember for little time. also sometimes there can be some hallucinations while going into sleep and waking up from sleep called hypnogogic and hypnopompic hallucinations. But if he remembers everything after little time, its not seem worrisom condition. Still i advise you to get him investigated (MRI Brain, thyroid function test, Serum vitamin B12).
