Decoding Symptoms: Brain Disorder or Intoxication Exploration
Patient Query
Hello Doctor,
Hi, I'm 16. I had a 10-minute moment upon waking where I forgot who I was, where I was, and even about my dog. I've also had headaches on one side, slurred speech, and trouble spelling for a few days. What should I do? What could be causing this?

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
Upon reviewing your symptoms, it seems you might be showing signs of a brain disorder or intoxication. Although your symptoms were brief, it's important to undergo a comprehensive neurological evaluation to identify the root cause. This assessment should involve imaging tests like a CT or MRI scan to provide detailed insights
