Thank you for your reply, it felt like a breath of relief to hear from many of you on the forum and know I am not alone. Your mention of the medication issue gives me pause as he did start a new blood pressure med, Atenolol, a few months ago. Looked it up and it does seem that it can cause memory problems in some people. I need to find the right time to talk with him about this, he does not think he is forgetful and thinks it is me who is having the problem. But we do need to know. Thank you for the wise words, J.

@jannew
Can you call his doctor and ask about the effects of Atenolol on his memory and agitation? It could open the door for them to want to see him to review his medications.

@jannew I am hopeful it is just the meds! When I was able to blame the medication for his problem, it made the talk much easier. Let us know what happens. Hoping for the best for both of you.
