Q: How can we know for sure that our forgetfulness isn’t an early sign of the brain disease?
A: What is an early sign of the Alzheimer’s disease? So you forgot your neighbor’s name that one time. If it popped up a few hours later, you probably just had a brain fart. Even a few of these memory lapses shouldn’t be taken too seriously, since they’re likely to happen when you’re stressed, anxious, depressed, or not sleeping enough. But if forgetfulness begins to affect your daily life – say, you suddenly spaced on how to get to work – see your doctor.
The fact that your family had Alzheimer’s means your risk could be tripled.
There’s no single test to diagnose the disease, so you’d probably undergo memory and neurological exams, blood tests, and an MRI or a CAT scan to suss out the potential problem. Even if you’re given the allclear, keep beefing up your brain’s resiliency. Walking or jogging just a few times a week can prevent brain atrophy, one hallmark of
Alzheimer’s, according to a study in Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience.
