For a number of years the family have suspected that my dad has some sort of dementia. From our observations, we have two nurses in the family, we suspect Frontotemporal dementia as this fits his symptoms best.
He has been to the memory clinic who say there is nothing wrong with him as he passed their Maths test. The problem is he was an engineer with a degree in Maths and that part of his brain doesn't seem to have been effected by what ever he has. In his speech he struggles with big words and will use lots of small ones to get to the description. He is also having mood swings and his attention span seams to be getting smaller.
My mother-in-law has Alzheimer's and we are 100% sure it isn't that.
Has anyone got any ideas of how we can move forward?
