I used to excuse it as being a bit of a scatter brain but it is now at the point where i have to write everything down or forget. the confusion is very scary for example i withdrew $100 from the cash point which came out in 2 $50 notes. I was holding it in my hand telling my husband that the machine had only given me 40 bucks he said i was holding 50's. i was looking at them and could see they were 50's but it was like my brain did not accept it I was convinced i had only been given 40. I have also had issues such as forgetting the name of regular thing i was holding an apple and could not remeber what it was called or what i needed to do with it. i have had other issues aswell i was just wondering if anyone else had had anything similar to this
Any advice would be appreciated
