@sharonlynne I did. My radiology center has a patient portal and the results go in quickly. But I don’t always understand what specific results mean. So I need my neurologist to explain. I had a CT SCAN for the overall condition and a PT scan for Alzheimer’s. I have vascular dementia and not Alzheimer’s dementia.
Wishing you well.

What kinds of meds did the Dr give you for the vascular dementia?

@fletchette what is the difference between the two tests that you had ...the CT SCAN and the PT scan?
So many different tests... and wondering...why was I given an MRI? And, I read that the MRI would not necessarily be conclusive! Not sure where this is going.
My Dr. didn't contact me yet, so tomorrow I am going into the office to see what my diagnosis is. Very anxious!!!!
