Hello,
There is no necessarily a disease that may cause memory problems. There are conditions such as stress and anxiety, fatigue, etc. that may impair in a certain degree the memory function.
If these memory problems become more prominent and continue you should see a Neurologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Erion Spaho, Neurologist, Surgical
