Did they recommend any treatment options?
My husband was diagnosed the same APOE-2/3. The Dr said he has Alzheimer’s but I’ve read this isn’t really a diagnosis unless it’s a 4 or 4/4.
What are the recommendations for you?
They want him to do the infusion treatment but the risk seem to outweigh the benefit.

@sasham I believe it is incorrect to believe that instances of APOE2 or 3 mean you categorically do not have alzheimer’s. More patients with AD have instances of APOE
4 and so that consequently raises the risk of developing AD. APOE 2 can actually be helpful in deterring It I have read. Some - me included - would be happy to have 2/3. I have 3/4.
