If your loved one has developed memory loss in old age, you may be wondering if it’s a sign of Alzheimer’s disease, or another dementia.
But since there are many other medical problems that can cause memory or thinking problems in later life (memory loss in 70s, 80s or 90s), it’s essential to not assume it’s Alzheimer’s until a medical evaluation has checked for other causes.
In this video, Dr. Kernisan explains the common causes of memory loss that geriatricians often check for.
