Memory challenges often trigger what response?

---

Often when a person mentions a memory difficulty, doctors will immediately think epilepsy/some form of epilepsy:

Petit mal/absence/complex partial/TLE, and so on.

Some doctors may think:

ADHD Inattentive

Central auditory processing disorder (CAPD).

A few doctors may think:

Autism

Dyslexia

Subtle brain injury/sports concussions

Subtle glitch in working memory/short term memory

---

Doctors are often trained to think of memory disorders as Alzheimer.
