Just found this site. My wife has been diagnosed with CAA at age 63. It’s great to read similar symptoms, especially regarding confusion.

Hello, @bortner, and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Glad you found this site and that you are finding some similarities in what you are reading in this discussion, "Cerebral amyloid angiopathy," with what you've seen in your wife.

I'd like you to meet @surf362 @sistertwo @thomaslmason @nonipoppy and others in this discussion. I'd also like to introduce you to @johnbishop, as well as @IndianaScott, who is the volunteer mentor for the Connect Caregivers group, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/caregivers/, and may have some knowledge about seeing confusion in a loved one.

Is this a recent diagnosis, @bortner? What types of confusion is your wife experiencing?
