Just wondering if there are other disorders out there, in younger people that may cause a temporary lapse in recognition. Please list any references

was diagnosed with dementia 3 years ago; he’s 79. But I think he had it in his 50s, looking back. That means increased of me having it and developing it early too, right? How can I find out? I had a CT scan, but it showed nothing.

There was a question posed earlier about whether McCain has Alzheimers. I personally think he suffers from dementia. Either way, we CANNOT allow this man to be president. Let him get the help he deserves.

Other then dementia, are there medical conditions that can mimic alzheimers? Please only serious EDUCATED answers.
I know the symptoms.. my question is “Could there be something BESIDES alzheimers that acts the same as alzheimers but isn’t alzeimers?” Perhaps something that can be treated or reversed since alzheimers is usually a dead end with very little options..

rocky.rockefeller asked:


The man trembles and his speech becomes incoherent. He suffers from vertigo and forgets things, stumbles, has memory lapses and can’t recall-or doesn’t know-in which continent countries are. Are these all signs that he has the beginning stages of Alzheimers disease? Or does it simply mean that the man is a stupid, lame idiot?

My mom has alzheimers and i’ve been told that Medicare will pick up hospice for her without going after any assets my dad may have after she’s gone. I know Medi-Cal/Medicade will go after the home to recoop moneys spent, but i’m wondering if the same will happen with Medicare.

How greatly does this increase my odds of having it? Is there anything I can do? any advice or insight on the subject is appreciated, even if it doesnt exactly answer my question.
