What could cause a loss of memory?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lack of interest: Memory is a very tricky topic. We remember what is important to us. We lose memory of things that are not important or are so painful as to need to be forgotten. Injury or accident can cause loss of memory. Drug use, brain infections, head trauma, all can cause memory loss. Age causes difficulty with memory.
