The Caregiver’s Brain

I'm reaching out this morning, as I was in a caregivers class for 6 weeks where I live, and I brought up living in mold for an extended period of time, at the same time my husband was diagnosed. Even though the neurologists did test, confirmed MCI, my husband on lequembe, I'm told by several medical practitioners that mold can create brain fog, and the those "amyloid plagues" can build up in the brain from that. They suggested I have my husband tested again. Has any caregiver on this site, had anything like that take place. I'm curious. As we're on this path with his 14th lequemebe, we're out of the house (we're renting) that had mold until it's totally remodeled. What a mess, we had so much in the wall/celing damage (that insurance doesn't cover), at the same time my husband was diagnosed. If anyone has any information, let me know. Thanks,

@kjc48 I would definitely ask the neurologist about it, especially if your husband started his symptoms at around the same time. They may be able to test for it and hopefully alleviate some of his symptoms. Try asking an AI for information - I use Claude and I feel it gives me a lot of helpful information as long as you check it for accuracy.
