hi everyone on this forgot the name of it
i feel very sad for most of the people on here both people with dementia as in umbrella
oh its called tp i think
i have been diagnosed with alzheimers and vasculor type dementia it come a bit of a shock even tho i been havening memmory problems for a good few years but been getting worse through time
i was diagnosed at a memory clinic after the paper type test then sent for ecg and blood tests and mri scan
and it showed up which apparntly means 3 to 5 years and was put on mematine straight away and then called back after a month to see how i was doing then increased to 10mg and then after a nother month another check up on me to see me again now told it be six months my doctors were informed but nevercontacted me lol but the council have a nice lady on their alzheimers team who has been helping me
trying now to get blue badge for me
my late mother bless her had alziemers and parkinsons and my gran had it too and my mums cousin
so i am asking it is heredity
and i also see many people in same vote here trying to get a diagnosis then no support and others being told one thing and not the help they wanted or needed
where would this country be if it wasnt for our army of carers who dedicate their lives to helping family friends and people who need help when social care does not step up to the mark
sorry if i have rambled a bit but wanted to blow of some steam and you all have my sympathy
