Can history of electrocution cause memory loss?
human
In 1982 I came in contact with 17,000 Volts of electricity and was oxygen deprived for an extended period. Now years later I am starting to have issues with memory to the point where it is affecting me on a regular basis where I do not remember conversations friends and have even gotten the name of my dog that I have had for 12 years. Could this be a progressive issue such as Alzheimer s? Or could it be the long-term effects of the electrocution and oxygen deprivation? Thank you in advance. Sincerely, Karen

Hi KarenI admire you for positive outlook.It can be Alzheimer or may be effect of some vascular problems.Usually electrocution cause memory loss immediate after that events. Long term consequences are rare in electrocution.need to go for MRI or neurologist consultation for better evaluation.Thank you.Take care.
