Amnesia

Self-care

Amnesia always requires a medical evaluation. If amnesia persists, it may be helpful to write things down on sticky notes or in a notebook to aid memory.

When to seek immediate medical care

See a doctor immediately if:

  • Sudden memory loss
  • Head trauma
  • Disorientation or confusion
