Memory loss
This is usually the first sign of Alzheimer’s disease. Forgetting important dates or events can occur. If questions become repetitive and frequent reminders are required, you should see your doctor.
Difficulty planning or solving problems
Alzheimer’s disease can become more apparent if you have difficulty developing and following a plan of action. Working with numbers may also become difficult. This can often be seen when you or a family member begins to demonstrate problems maintaining monthly bills or a checkbook.
