What causes inflammation of the heart?

A kind of minor memory loss happened to my dad suddenly this morning,,, pls help me know its' causes!?

my dad already suffers a very high blood pressure that sometimes reaches 260, plus a heart muscle inflammation suddenly this morning, he forgot about me and my brother, my mom showed him our pictures to remind him, he said that we look familiar to him, but he doesn't know us at all, and forgot about many other things related to our home and relatives..... his condition is so bad now, he tries to remember but he can't! pls help me know what causes could be to such case, we're lost!
Answer:

Haven't you heard of a doctor or hospital? Blood pressure problems can cause strokes - which can affect the brain - he may of had a small stroke in the area where his memory is. He should be on blood pressure medication if he has a high reading, that would help to keep it down. But really he needs to go to a hospital if his memory is suddenly failing, as it could be a stroke and he will need medication to stop it getting worse. Take him to a hospital ASAP and explain what happened, he really needs professional help, not Yahoo help.
