At the moment he is only being treated by our family doctor as he has been fairly stable for past two and a half years (not so much with his other problems). His memory problems seem to get worse daily. He hasn't wanted meat most of the time. I can get him to eat a lot of fruit. He is also into sweets big time - which I know aren't good for him but at 89 figure he should enjoy. Doctor said the same thing as he doesn't seem adversely effected by them. At the moment he is taking a handful of pills daily. Falling now has become a major problem.

Thank you for your comments - very much appreciated.

If falling is a major problem, a neurologist would help with both memory and balancing issues. Since we both live in the Phoenix area, you can find a neurologist in north Phoenix off the 101 or Scottsdale. I would suggest talking with your family doctor and have your husband get a thorough exam from Mayo. I wish you both the best.
