My Father Is Having Memory Problems
Posted: 06-25-05 08:02am

My father, who is 65, is having some problems with his memory fo that last few months. He tends to forget things often now. Most often he forgets names of people in particular. Is this natural at his age?
Can his problem be rectified? Please help!

I don't think it's normal for a man on 65 years old to start forgetting things. Can you tell me something more about your father's medical history like: other diseases he is suffering from, having other of his relatives with similar disorder, any brain injuries or diseases, etc.
