Don't jump to AD: I'm imagining that you fear early onset Alzheimer's. If so, do visit your doctor to ask for an exam and referral if needed. Even if it runs in your family, there is a good chance that this is NOT it, but it will either reassure you or give you a good head start w/ management choices. Fear can make these things happen more w/out any disease. Tx and counseling can provide a high quality life if +.
