Some symptoms they may notice themselves, others may only be noticed by caregivers or healthcare workers.
  • Recent memory loss - a sign of this might be asking the same question repeatedly.
  • Difficulty completing familiar tasks - for example, making a drink or cooking a meal.
  • Problems communicating - difficulty with language; forgetting simple words or using the wrong ones.
  • Disorientation - getting lost on a previously familiar street, for example.
  • Problems with abstract thinking - for instance, dealing with money.
  • Misplacing things - forgetting the location of everyday items such as keys, or wallets, for example.
  • Mood changes - sudden and unexplained changes in outlook or disposition.
  • Personality changes - perhaps becoming irritable, suspicious or fearful.

As the patient ages, late-stage dementia symptoms tend to worsen.

We might even be able to vaccinate our children against it. The virus implicated in Alzheimer’s disease , herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1), is better known for causing cold sores.
