Guest guest Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 I haven't commented much on this loop, but I follow the threads with interest. My husband was diagnosed with PD in 2009 at the age of 56. I never felt the diagnosis was accurate based on my father's battle with PD for the 20 years prior to that. My husband's problems started with cognitive impairment with the movement issues starting about a year and a half later. My husband has all the classic symptoms of LBD but when the doctors have given him the psycological tests he tests " normal " . Has anyone else had their LO test in the normal range early in their disease? My husband was a genius before this illness (IQ of about 160) My husband is currently seeing a movement order specialist as opposed to a demetia specialist. His doctor is at the Cleveland Clinic (so he's very good) but he is basing his decision on that test. I'm not sure what to do from here. Do I wait until his tests start showing more decline or go to another doctor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
