I'd strongly urge you to talk to your Dr. about this and if they feel it is necessary get a referral to a neurologist.

I'm 53 and have been having problems with memory, word recall, and mixing up words. My family Dr. referred me to a neurologist for testing and the initial round of tests showed that I'm in the normal range for people of my age and educational level and that I have no signs of Alzhiemers or other forms of dementia. But they're still following up with a PET scan and more targeted testing as they think I may have selective areas of impairment.

A friend of mine, who is a few years older than me, on the other hand also went to her Dr. with memory problems, and it was confirmed that she does have cognitive impairment, so she's been referred to a neurologist for further testing and a plan to slow the memory loss.

So two very different outcomes, which is why I suggest you get it checked out. You might as well know where you stand.
