Write an essay on Mild Dementia in 100 lines, if you can please.
I am trying to understand what a dementia is.Every dementia is not Alzheimer's disease. Is it?
My hubby who is 81 thinks I have dementia and I am at 75 yrs of age think that he has a case of Dementia?
I am willing to go for noninvasive tests, but my hubby refuses.
How would I get him to go see a Neurologist or a Neuron whatever Psych is out there to get him and test him by force? No.Force please.
It scares me to use force on anyone.for any reason.
Educate me.

@vijay26 Maybe ask your primary care doctor for a referral to get tested for yourself first. Then you can tell your husband how the test wasn’t bad, was fun, etc. You can ask the doctors all your questions. They might have a suggestion on how to get your husband in there, and you’ll have a known place to refer him to.
I actually told my husband, “I’ll go if you’ll go” because he was bugging me to get tested. That worked for us.
