    Appreciated the listing and explanation of drugs, but stopped watching when suggesting that the goal was to remove plaques. The plaques are there to PROTECT the brain from inflammation. They're the firefighters attempting to put out the fire. Killing firefighters is nonsense.

    Where can I find data on your fact about the risks of general anesthesia causing dementia? My mom is in her 70s and had surgery on her knee a few years ago and I've been observing changes in her cognitive abilities, anxiety level, communication, and overall insecurity about many things.

    • @jameslwest1
      @jameslwest1 Před 16 dny

      Hi @aquarainhealer, there are several studies that indicate a higher risk of dementia after general anesthesia, but the studies are not conclusive. Below are links to a few articles that explain further. There can be many reasons and causes to why you are seeing changes in your Mom and we encourage you to see specialist(s) that can help pinpoint the causes of the changes so you can find the right treatment. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8807795/ www.healthline.com/health/dementia/anesthesia-and-dementia www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/anesthesia-impact-on-memory#dementia

    Is it a PET scan that detects plaque caused by Dementia ? or can a CAT scan or MRI with contrast see it? Thank you!

    • @jameslwest1
      @jameslwest1 Před 16 dny

      Hi @justmouse; a PET scan can pick up on the amount of a beta amyloid protein in the brain. High levels of this protein are a main suspect in helping doctors diagnose Alzheimer's disease

      @jameslwest1 That is a very clear explanation, and I now understand. Thanks for taking the time to reply !

    I am an RN who works in a rehab/long term facility with dementia residents and my family member has Alzheimer's dementia. These are by far, the most educational videos on dementia. I have seen a few. So good, better than the educational training we get at work.
