Hello Im new here and would like some advice please.
My father is 86 he as Alzheimers and Vascular Dementia (mixed)
He as had this for around 5 years , he had a mini stoke in 2018 and after
his anger and mood swings got worse , we managed this and he is taking
more tablets . He had another mini stoke in July then 10 days later another .
He seems to have gone a little quite this time and not so angry , He isn't eating
much dinners at all but likes sweet things , the doctor said this is normal . The MRI
showed Left sided acute cortical infracts , and a Carotid Doppler showed a Right
CCA fibrous plaque . He as been given 75mg of Aspirin to have each day .
My concern is I'm afraid to travel far incase of another stroke , am I right to think this
from the MRI results ? Im so scared I just don't know what to do for the best , my father
is never left on his own no more , but the stress is making all the family so ill
