Recognizes him as dad and husband in photos however? Disease? Episodes of not recognizing dad seems to come when anxious issues occur or unhappy with dad. Is in narcotic pain patches. Takes anti anxiety Med. Tecgnizes absolutely everyone else. Total recall of current and past events. When we try and tell her the person is her husband she tells us it's s charade. Gets mad. Any thoughts
As you recognize, this is highly abnormal behavior, so looking for the cause makes sense. Sometimes it takes more than one doctor to get to the bottom of things. This is not to denigrate the doctor, but they can't all be experts in everything. Good luck to you,

Do take her to Dr.to check this out.This is actually a symptom.
The brain itself will fill in the blanks.
If there is no memory it will make on from past experience. especially when injury from lack of oxygen.
Spouce will say sister cooked breakfast for before school when growing up as child. Now after 7yoa lived with grandparent not sister.
Sister says hes making up lies because things he says never happened.
They always manipulated him.To point of getting his inheritance 401k cashed in at earliest they came from out of state to get him to take to another state to get 401k left from stepfather that was left to be able to take care of him.
Because, what he did for his mother when the other siblings disowned her for marring stepfather.
Because, forgotten memory filled in with logical want to be plesant thoughts about relationship.
Now in disorder husband not recognized should be husband . Told husband. Brain knows has emotional attatchment should recognize husband. So brain says, I don't recognized this person as my husband, I am told it is my husband whom I most certainly would recognize.
Locical conclusion for brain, trying to trick me with Impostor; I would know husbands face.
Another disorder there is with lack of facial recoginition recall too, result of brain trauma.But, don't think this in your case.
Please address this with doctor.Maybe have husband come in while Dr. there if "imposter syndrome "is that constant to observe behavior.
