I have seen a couple of specialists and had an MRI which showed "mild excess" atrophy in the parietal lobes - at 51!
I have also been assessed for memory issues and speech problems. The next step is a lumbar puncture this Thursday (18th October) so they seem to be looking for Alzheimer's.
How long am I likely to have to wait for results? The doctors have been vague so far, but the fairly generic lumbar puncture leaflet I was given with my appointment letter suggests results can take over a month!!
