Hi,
My father was told last Tuesday he has dementia with Lewy Bodies and all of a sudden he can not walk at all and his hands are like claws, he can't grip. he is in pads as he can't get to the toilet, this has happen all of a sudden after he was told he has Dementia Lewy Bodies. We have still not had no diagnose letter from the doctor at the hospital.
The doctor did not give us any further information on it and said go on google, he not even been given any medication at all,
He has gone from walking, to not being able to walk, he said he can't move his legs because they feel like lead and can't grip.
Is the normal process of this type of dementia with Lewy Bodies, go from walking to not being able to walk the next and legs feeling like lead and can't use hands to grip.
He has only had one CT scan, which he had in April, and just been told got dementia with Lewy bodies with one scan and no other test's part from the cognitive test with the clock.
I feel like sometimes they have not look at my father proper, i thought he would have more test like scans like MRI ect.
