Hi,I am Dr. Andrew Rynne (Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am retired and I have watched TV everyday for 12 hours for 3 years. My wife is still working and I only talk to her about 30 mins. to 1 hour a day except on weekends. I sleep 4-5 hours at night. I search for words. Am I getting Alzehemeirs? 3 months ago, I started getting ringing in my let ear.
Hello and thank you for the question, You may be getting alzheimer's disease but you also may just be losing brain function because of all the TV watching. Also you are not getting enough sleep. Please consider sleeping 8-9 hours daily, watching no more than 1 hour of TV daily and find a hobby or outdoor activity that you like. Take a multivitamin and exercise daily even if it is only walking for 30 minutes. If you do these things I think you will be feeling better soon. If not, see a doctor for an exam and blood tests. Regards
