My thoughts exactly. If the side effects make life worse for me and my family then I'm not sure I will do the infusions. Yes. This would be my question, too. How effective? How much extra time? I pray that the doctors will see all of us as people and not pressure us to go on meds or other treatments just to add to the research pool. I am determined to deal with this in a way that doesn't make things harder for my family and friends. A good point I had not thought about - to let my daughter know to stop the infusions when I get to a memory care facility. If my PET scan on Thursday does not confirm the Alzheimer's diagnosis, then they say I can have a spinal tap that will give me an accurate confirmation. I guess I do just want to know, one way or the other. I appreciate your comments. God bless. Patty
