Guest guest Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 (Robin your post on LBDA's forums came up on by Google Lewy email alert which showed that you recommended this blog - so sharing here too) Dementia: Living with it Graciously " The question I am most asked regarding dementia is: am I getting Alzheimer's? I feel some qualification in answering this because of my professional training, but more so because I have been living with Dementia with Lewy Bodies for many months. Most people have not heard of this dementia, but according to Mayo Clinic information, it is second occurring only after Alzheimer's. Recognized in 1996 as a distinct dementia, Dementia with Lewy Bodies is a combination of the dementia associated with Alzheimer's and symptoms of Parkinson's.
