I have noticed I’m having more trouble with my memory than most people my age (71). And some friends in their 80’s. My mom died from Alzheimer’s and her dad as well. I notice I am having some behaviours as my mom in her early stages. And my ability to find words when I’m talking is getting worse. I had a CT scan a few years back and they told me there were areas that were more common in people in their 90’s. They said I should follow up in a year. That was when I was 68. My G P says I don’t need a scan and besides, it would take over a year to get one. I’m not sure what to do. I’m really scared.
