i haven't posted on here for a very long time. Things have been progressing but at a very slow pace.
OH has mixed dementia..Alzeihmer /Vascular. He's had symptoms for about 6 yrs but was diagnosed 4 yrs ago. Over the past few months he's been quite confused, his memory is very short term now sometimes only minutes really.
For most of January he seemed to deteriorate quite quickly. One day he couldn't really understand what I was saying to him. Monday of this week was particularly bad confusion, not understanding me, disorientated. And to top it all he had 3 nosebleeds.
Tuesday he gets up and he was totally different. He was more with it, I didn't have the incessant questions, he seemed to understand me straightaway. I can honestly say it was a pleasure to be with him !
Over the last few days the old him is slowly returning. Unsure of anything and everything, questions etc.etc.
So what's people's opinions......did the nose bleeds have anything to do with it ? Has anyone else experienced a brief drastic improvement ?
