I’m afraid that I am having some dementia issues and I’m a nervous wreck about it. My daughter (who I live with) doesn’t think I have dementia but I feel like I have signs of it. I’m off and on forgetful regarding names of people I used to remember easily and I also forget occasionally to get my laundry out of the dryer. These issues are periodic but scare me to bits. I’m not even sure what brand of doctor to see about this problem.

@ kfxston
If you feel like you want to be tested, call a neurologist. They can give you a few things to test your ability that will help make a decision.
Mild Cognitive Impairment is not necessarily the first step toward dementia.
Get tested so you know where you are at.
