My husband was also diagnosed with Mild (MCI). SOme of what you described my own husband does, but I haven't had issues wtih him not remembering where we live. I do notice he goes up and down on certain days. This morning was a bad day. Difficulty in paying bills on time, argumentative when I try to take them over, which I need and am going to do. You think you have time with this disease only to realize you don't as you don't know where they are in their mindset. I don't have the issues with my husband following me yet, or him worried there are people in our home, etc. so I agree with you, his tests my show mild, but it sounds like it might be more than mild. I think the best you can do is be as honest as you can with the doctor, so you can determine, how you proceed. I don't know if your husband is doing any infusions. Mine started lequembe, only in the 4th infusion, and I don't know if I see any results yet, but I'm not sure what I'm looking for.

My husband also started Lequembe and has had his 3rd dose. The very first time we went for an infusion, the nurse said that it could take up to 5 months before seeing any results. My husband is annoyed at having to sit for 2 hours doing the treatment and I have tried to convince him that is going to help. He is still quite capable of getting to places unless they are new. I am so frustrated with him not trying new things when encouraged. I have good days and bad. It is good to know that there is a place that we can vent. Sending hugs!
