Hi, i’m new to the forum and wanted to day hello.
I’m not sure if me joining is premature as my husband hasn’t had a diagnoses yet but he has had an MRI scan last week and we are waiting for the follow up appointment.
It sounds weird for me to say this but my worst fear is of getting inconclusive results. Of course I don’t want him to have a positive diagnoses but I need to have answers of why his memory is so bad and the impact it is having on our life.
I feel so guilty feeling this way, almost selfish but if I know what I’m dealing with I could be more understanding. I get so cross because I don’t know if he just being lazy and expecting me to store everything in my head or it’s genuine. I feel like a walking diary and constantly repeating dates, times and instructions and this is a struggle as I’m going through all the menopause symptoms , suffer with anxiety and depression.
Family and close friends seem to think it’s’just his age’ (he is 62) and he has scored really well on the cognitive test but they’re not living with it day to day.
Has anyone else experienced the feelings I’m feeling at the moment. I’m I a horrible person😔
