How’s sympathise with you and your feelings ! My OH was seen by memory clinic in July 2017 and diagnosed MCI plus a referral to neurologist, Brain scan, EEG and many more tests followed, told may be dementia with Lewy Bodies, may not, ??? Symptoms worsened rapidly......confusion caused him to OD on insulin , he was hospitalized. Car had to go , as was becoming a danger, more decline, them hospitalized again possible TIA.
Last seen my neurologist and she said she is loathe to make a diagnosis so refereeing back to memory clinic.
In the meantime OH has lost mobilty and memory has declining.Our world has turned upside down, and I feel we are not able to proceed and deal with things perhaps as we should because we haven’t got a way forward, because still not an official diagnosis!!!!! This is now 2 years plus since I first voiced my concerns.
All I can say is keep on trying for your Mum, as you obviously are! I hope that when you next see the memory nurse you will feel you’re getting somewhere and take some comfort that the brain scans ruled out anything really sinister . You are doing the best for your Mum!
I wish you luck and your Mum !xxx
