← Return to Mild cognitive impairment: What questions to ask the neurologist?

When I see my neurologist on a couple of weeks, I’d like to understand whether there are milestones of sorts. Example: if you can’t find your keys, that’s frustrating. If you don’t know what the keys are for, that’s - in my mind - a milestone. What resources are available to my children to understand what’s helpful and what’s a waste of time.

I’m fortunate that I have a good friend who is a hospice nurse and she will help my children with that piece.

And what do I need to ask that I’m not.

As I said, I have a detailed plan

But we can chat another time about that.

Have a good evening.

Hello, I was just checking these “boards” and saw these posts.

Almost 3 years ago I made a comment to my PCP about something not being right in my thinking, mental acuity etc. He sent me to a Neurologist who did a few tests; MRI, EEG, Neuropsychiatric Test.
The diagnosis was Mild Cognitive Impairment.

If you read my other post from tonight, you will see that I now have progressed to Alzheimer’s Dementia.
