Hello Readers,

Thank God I'm out of bed and feeling much better. A lot of rest was welcomed by my body and it was just what I needed. My appetite has not come back for solids but give it a couple days and it will! (smile) I'm not out of the woods completely so I'm going to spend next week taking it easy!

I was researching information on the topic Dementia and Parkinson's.  I've been exhibiting some signs but it could be the change in my medications recently. Below is an exert and the address to read the whole article will be at the end. Enjoy and feel free to comment. Be Brave!

Lovingly AlwaysaDiva

Dementia doesn't affect everyone with Parkinson's. However, it is more common in people with the condition than those without.
There are 2 forms of dementia associated with Parkinson's. When a dementia diagnosis is being made by a specialist:
Parkinson's dementia is diagnosed when someone already has the movement (motor) symptoms of Parkinson's and has had them for some time.
Dementia with Lewy bodies is diagnosed when someone has the symptoms of dementia either before or at the same time as they develop Parkinson's.
It's important to speak to your GP, specialist or Parkinson's nurse if you think you have the symptoms of dementia - or if you think someone you care for does.
It's rare that someone under the age of 65 will develop dementia.
