Lately I have been experiencing memory problems. Like yesterday, it took me a minute to remember the name of one of my students. This is a student I know pretty well. I certainly know her name, I just went blank on it. Earlier this week I lost my phone and I could have sworn I had only been in the kitchen but it turned up in the living room and I didn't even remember that I'd been in there, although I had been dashing around sorting washing etc out. Then last night I put a pan on the stove to cook pasts with no water in it. I am already worried about a brain tumour but now an having anxiety about dementia too. I am about to turn 40 so would be young for dementia but it does happen in younger people. This level of forgetfulness can't be normal.
