My mother’s doctor and neighbor of 20 years has diagnosed early onset dementia. A Geriatric Center did tests and confirmed that diagnosis. However now her neurologist says it’s not dementia only forgetfulness. Who do you believe?
Purposely answering this before I read other answers. I am not expert, but what difference does it make? Its not like if he really has dementia there are things you can do about it . My dad had ALZ and it appears my mom is losing her cognitive ability. Makes me wonder what will happen to me I have read things where they can do tests to determine if you will get this. Why would I want to know?
