I did a lot of research since my diagnosis of early onset Alzheimer’s. I hv the gene
€4/€3 the first letter in each is suppose to be a backwards
E. If you have this combination you are at a risk of getting Alzheimer’s
€\4€\4 is most likely to get
Alzheimer’s.
There is more but this too much I could get into.
That’s why this could run in families in women.

@joycel10 I'm sure it runs in my family on both sides. My mother had AD. My Dad's oldest sister ( very intelligent) had AD. His youngest sister also. Now I've been diagnosed with Early Onset Alzheimers disease. Great gene pool. Honestly, it royally ticks me off.
