Answer 3

It could mean that you are not getting your proper nutrients or you have been going without eating proper nutrients for a while, not getting enough rest, or you could have low iron. Did this person ever had problems with their iron being low? There are a lot of things that can trigger these symptoms. Go see your primary health care provider and get some blood work done, and go from there or try getting all your food groups in daily, take multivitamins daily, read a book for 30 mins daily, and exercise daily for 30-45 mins. Hope this helps.

Answer 4

Start with a general practitioner or family doctor and let them decide if the person needs a psych eval. It could be a physical problem. Good luck!

Answer 5

I suggest their primary care physician who may refer them to a neurologist - sounds like symptoms of a stroke or early alzheimers.

Possible depression. Start with your PCP. Good Luck......
