Hero, I've read some of your other posts and it does sound as if you've got a lot going on in your life. If I was standing in your shoes, I'd start with my primary care doctor. If nothing was found in the physical exam and tests, I'd then ask for a referral to a psychologist. Some psychological problems can have the symptoms I end up calling "scatterbrained." Unable to focus, mind going all over, forgetting things we'd like to remember, life favors for a friend, someone's birthday, what time to meet, that sort of thing. Still functioning, but all over the map.

I'm always happy when my medical tests come back negative. It means I don't have a worrisome disease. But it also means I have to start looking elsewhere because I still have the problem. From things you've described in other posts, I'd say see your M.D. first and if that comes out clean, ask to see a psychologist who can test you for various psychological problems.

Even though you're still functioning in day to day life, getting this problem identified and treated could improve the quality of that functioning, making your life easier. Please think about it.
