Is something wrong with me? Difficulty finding words, slurred speech, etc?

Question

More recently I've been having trouble speaking. My mouth just doesn't seem to work sometimes. My words get slurred or mixed up, like dyslexia. I can't find words as I'm talking and I forget things all the time now, including names of people I see very often or even birthdays (my kids', hubby's, my OWN, family's, etc) I'm extra clumsy and feel braindead sometimes, like not wanting to do anything or think too hard on anything. What can this possibly be? I'll probably go to the doc eventually, so please don't just say, "go to the doctor." I'm trying to get a vague idea of what can possibly cause any of this.
I'm not on any meds. I've never had alcohol. I've never smoked anything. I did have a baby two months ago but this seems to have been going on before I had him.

I cannot say what it is but I have some ideas. Guessing is a bad idea as there are so many possibilities even hormonal. I really suggest you don't wait any longer to see a doctor. You have a baby to take care of and you have to be in top shape to do that. Health is the most important thing we have so don't ignore. Good Luck!

If it happens after you haven't eaten in a while, you could be hypoglycemic. I know I have difficulty forming sentences if my blood sugar is low.

These things may be stress-related, but they may also be symptoms of something more serious, such as the after-effects of an unnoticed stroke. Please do see a doctor soon!
