@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!!!!

@sharonlynne sorry I am late to reply. How did your appointment go with your doctor?
I just saw my neurologist today and my diagnosis is still vascular dementia boy she’s not ruled out Alzheimer’s as well. So I’m having some pTau tests because that is elevated and tied to Alzheimer’s.
So I go with the flow. It’s a lot easier to just live one day at a time.
