Aside from Alzheimers what other diseases can cause memory loss, confusion, and other symptoms typically associated with Alzheimers?

My Aunt had a cataract surgery 1 month ago, about a week later she just stopped functioning normally.

She thinks her things are vanishing, and that she is invisible, but her stuff is really there and I can see her. She is not crazy, or having any difficulty with motor skills, she seems aware that she has something wrong, but like us and her Doctors, can’t pin point it.

Cat Scan is negative for stroke, and Spinal Tap is negative for any infection in the spinal fluid/brain.

I thought she might have got the Optic nerve infected, but I guess the Spinal Tap ruled that out…

I have never heard of Alzheimers just hitting someone so suddenly. One day she was at work, the next day she thought her car had dissappeared.

Any help?
