    I wish it was so much easier to recognise and confirm the very early stages. The stage where you are not sure, where you think something is wrong but you cant even explain it you can’t put you’re finger on it.
    When you finally get a diagnosis or know for sure you look back and realise the early signs were so many years before.
    Thank you for you’re video

      I certainly wish we had better diagnostics, too. My grandmother had Lewy Body Dementia and we went without knowing for a long time. Thank you for watching.

      Mom had a very normal baseline, then got a huge UTI recovering from a leg injury. After the UTI she has had altered mental status. Frankly, this description of lewy body is very close. Could a UTI cause lewy body onset in a few days? Or could something similar to lewy body start up in a few days, and linger? It's six months now... Thank you for your ideas.

    Thank you, really make me fell better about. You spoke very clearly, since everything is so diffuse. The changes can be so subtle.

    This horrible disease took Robin Williams. The brain is just so vastly complex and Medicine has just a rudimentary understanding of it. It's getting better but when it comes to the human brain, it's still a shot in the dark basically.
