Hi,
My dad has suffered from short term memory loss for a couple of years. This has worsened considerably over the last 12 months. He has been to the memory clinic for tests and scans. There is no sign of dementia currently. Dad has led an active lifestyle throughout his life. My mum is finding daily life more and more difficult as dad retains zero information, literally after a couple of minutes he has no recollection of a conversation.
My dad is on statin medication (atorvastatin) and eye drops (ganfortazopt). Both of these have side effects of memory loss. I'm seeking advice around this. Can anyone offer advice or have similar problems with particular medication.
Thanks.
