Learn if memory problems might be Alzheimer's

We can expect to be a little forgetful as we get older. But serious memory problems may signal Alzheimer's disease-a brain disorder that has serious effects on memory, thinking and reasoning, and only gets worse over time.

Is it Alzheimer's?

Watch for red flags

Normal forgetfulness

  • Occasionally overlooking a bill.
  • Misplacing things, like a phone or a set of keys, from time to time.
  • Forgetting what day it is but remembering later.
  • Sometimes struggling to remember a word.

Possible Alzheimer's disease

  • Trouble with basic tasks like paying for a purchase or counting change.
  • Putting things away in an odd place, like keys in the freezer.
  • Losing track of the date or time of year.
  • Trouble having a conversation.

If you're concerned about changes in memory, talk to a doctor. The problem may be caused by something other than Alzheimer's, and the right care could improve or reverse it.
