A speaker stated that Dementia if caught early can be reversed…T or F?

Can dementia if caught early be reversed or is the symptoms be managed early slowing down the progression? I felt the speaker gave false information hence false hope and/or made loved ones feel guilty for not knowing and advocating for their loved ones early…

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Caregivers: Dementia Support Group.

I’m still going forward with Lequembi… I find myself at the end of the day I slip a little with my memory.
I’m going back on Aricept
Soon when my gastroenterologist comes
Back from vacation
My stomach has been bad my whole life!!!
Good luck on your journey
Joyce
