In this case the patient had been diagnoses with mild dementia prior to the procedure. Then a year ago with early Alzheimers. So that is definitely part of the picture but the fact that they went from 95% normal then to 15%, then up to 85% with anti-psychotic medication within days and that lasted for a year and a half but within days now is at 30% does not make sense to me at all given a neurologist says it's very close to advanced stage Alzheimers. Nothing about the fact that it could be the anti-psychotic medication either losing effectiveness or not been given at times.
