@civvy You may want to push for a more definitive diagnosis. MCI can be a general catchphrase that just confirms “something is happening”. There is more emphasis being placed on early testing. The old theory was that the dementia had to progress enough for a more accurate diagnosis to be made. That appears to be changing. More & more I am seeing reports, articles, etc. stressing the importance of testing as early as possible. It’s been known for some time which types of dementia affect personality at an earlier stage vs behaviors vs memory. Some medications only work at the earlier stages & most medications are specific to the type of dementia they are safe & effective for. The LBDA (Lewy Body Dementia Association) recommends early testing as its easier to get an accurate diagnosis.
