Suggest Remedies For Memory Loss Caused By Mild Cognitive Impairment
Question: Lately with my typing I have been omitting words that I think I have typed. It's becoming a bit distressing.
Brief Answer:
Need to exclude mild cognitive impairment.
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for posting your query.
I am Dr Sudhir Kumar, Neurologist, and would try my best to help you.
I have noted your clinical details. Based on that, we need to exclude a diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment (MCI). This requires doing a detailed neuropsychological testing (memory and other brain function tests), followed by CT/MRI scan of brain. Blood tests for vitamin B12 level and thyroid hormone status should also be done.
I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.
Wishing you good health,
