Hi everyone. Im new to TP. I am 53 yrs old and have been going to the GP on and off for the last 4 years about my memory but up to jan this year i was scoring 27 on the mini cog tests. However since then im finding it a real struggle to remember facts, songs, films etc that i know i know. Details of conversations or activities are foggy at best. Anyway because of my age, i think. Its taken me since January to get the GPs to take me seriously. At first it was your depressed and anxious take these antidepressants, which made me worse 10times worse. Then my GP literally laughed at me and said there is nothing wrong with your memory, however she did send me to see a psychiatrist who did more test and i have now got an MRI next week and bloods the following week. With a view to going to the memory clinic after that. So finally someone is taking me seriously. I know i dont have a formal diagnosis but ..... i just know. Anyway that me. Im glad iv found somewhere i can talk about things and how i feel as i haven't got any support as such. Iv 3 children but atm i carnt talk to them. Theres loads more but its a long post as it is so ill leave it there other than to say im scared about the future. Thanks for reading
