I am 50 years old male and have a deteriorating memory and alertness level of mind during last few years. I am not able to recollect information many a times though I can recall the same few hours later. I also find difficult to concentrate at times on specific task and feel disoriented. Do I have a neurological problem and can it be apparently set right or at least prevented from further deterioration.

Dear Lybrate user, At your age, Memory problems like amnesia are common. Many young people are having problems with memory. These problems are either they are too busy or due to anxiety and stress. Busy people use organizers or employ a personal assistant because they can't remember every task. You need to understand this. If you still say, you are having memory problems, we need to check your memory using memory test. If you want more of my help in this regard, please contact me. Take care.
