Question:
My husband is experiencing short term memory loss which has been going on for several years, only it seems to be getting worse lately (he's recently started a new job/new career).  He is 60 yrs. old and states he's becoming extremely frustrated over the situation and we're looking for any assistance you could provide.

Thank you.

Dr. Heller's Answer:
The major issue is: Are there any reversible causes present?  Some of the most common ones are...

    1)  Depression.

    2)  B12 deficiency.  Levels below 500 can cause a deficiency state.  Shots are no longer necessary.  I usually start my patients with B12 3000ug daily x 1 month, 2000ug daily x 1 month, then 1000ug daily.

    3)  Iron deficiency - which can easily be checked with blood tests (CBC, ferritin, iron, TIBC).

    4)  Co Q10 deficiency - particularly in individuals taking cholesterol lowering medications called "statins."  100mg daily has helped many of my patients.

    5)  Low thyroid (easily checked on a blood test).

    6)  Carotid artery blockages - can be checked by a physical examination and carotid ultrasound.

    7)  Hypoxemia (low blood oxygen) from asthma or heart disease.

    8)  Sleep disturbances, especially sleep apnea.
