    Edgar, that is normal, we all have a little forgetfulness! Don't stress about it or it can become serious. If you are concerned bring it up in your next physical with your doctor. Who knows you could have early on-set Alzheimer's.

    Have you been in an accidnent that resulted in your head getting hit? If so, you need to see a doctor ASAP. You could have serious brain trauma.

    If not, maybe you could use some brain training. Are you working or going to school? Sometimes when we don't use our brains and learn new things, we start to get a little dumb...not meant in a mean way. I am sure you get what I am trying to say.

    Either way, you should probably talk to a physician just to be sure!

    go to the doctor and check it out, you may have an Alzheimer's like illness, which affects young ppl....im being serious!

    the illness is caused by head trauma, and it could be from when you were a kid/baby.

    better safe than sorry.

    Your mind is going. Pretty soon you will go out one day and forget where you live and never find your way back. It's tough, I knw, but it happens. Make sure you have ID with your name and address on it with you at all times so when the lights finally go out you can at least get back.

    Don't read too much into your recent memory loss and if you're like me you can just blame it on getting older.
