what are some illnesses that my friend could have? aka. what's wrong with her??

Question

my friend is forgetting everything. she cannot remember anything that she tells me, or things that I told her. She even forgot the WHOLE sixth grade. She really is forgetting everything, it is not some normal thing. It's really serious. Please tell me what could be wrong with her, or why this is happening?

she told me that she is NOT gonna go to the doctor. I can't convince her!! is there anything I can do??

Answer 1

You don't mention how old your friend is. If she's under the age of 18, have a talk with your parents and they can talk with her parents and maybe together they can get your friend to the nearest urgent care clinic. She needs medical attention. Good luck.

Answer 2

Let her parents know, then they can definetly either take her to the hospital or reason with her and try to get a hold on whats going on.

Has she fallen and/or hit her head, if so the fall could have affected the memory part of her brain

Answer 3

Agree with all of the above. Quick intervention to prevent permanent damage...Don't let doctor's clerk give you an appointment in the future....they usually keep a couple open slots
for emergencies and this is one...email us and let us know the outcome.

Answer 4

She NEEDS to see a doctor NOW!! It could be a simple virus (Lyme disease can cause forgetfulness) or it could be as serious as a brain tumor or a stroke. She needs medical help TODAY to get to the root of the problem .
