My wife has always made a joke about how long it takes me to at times answer when she asks me a question face to face or over the phone. I’ve never really thought much of it but turns out it’s been mentioned with some other family members.
I was recently on the phone to a call centre with my mother in law in the room and she was spoke a few times whilst the phone was on loud speaker.
A few day later my wife joked about my delayed response time and that my mother in law had been speaking to her saying I did it whilst I was on the phone to the call centre. She said I took an age to respond to one question and in the end she had to talk. But I have no recollection of pausing at all, to me it felt like there was no time lost at all and she practically butted in before I could respond.
I’m a high performing middle manager at work in a busy environment, relatively healthy both mentally and physically all my life but I feel I do lack some long & short term memory compared to other people but nothing “worrying”.
I’m now paranoid I have some kind of cognitive problem which is causing me some kind of short term black out before I continue.
Is this a thing? Some kind of Dementia? Apart from some not having a super memory I don’t have any other possible symptoms.
