My husband has had noticeable memory issues the last couple of years. About 8 months ago his Dr finally had him to take one of the cognitive tests and he scored for MCI.
In April of this year he had a fall and dislocated his shoulder and probably a concussion from the fall. His memory has declined drastically after that fall and hitting his head.
We recently saw a neurologist and he had the blood test to check for APOE gene. He has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s.
So, in response to your question, I know he already had Alzheimer’s and I believe the fall contributed to progressing the disease.
No medical facts behind that, just my observation of day to day living.
He was offered the infusion treatments but the risk seems to outweigh the benefits. It’s a tough decision.
