A diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease can be scary and overwhelming. This book helps unravel the mysteries of Alzheimer’s disease, including the pathological features of Alzheimer’s disease, the stages of Alzheimer’s disease and the symptoms and prognosis at each stage, and the treatment options available for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease. This book also details how to find a doctor who will meet the needs of your loved one with Alzheimer’s disease as well as the diagnostic tests that your loved one may have to undergo to determine if they have Alzheimer’s disease. If your loved one has not yet been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, this book can help you recognize warning signs of Alzheimer’s disease and decipher if your loved one’s actions are related to Alzheimer’s disease or are just normal signs of aging. Other topics include methods to delay the onset of Alzheimer’s disease or slow its progression, comparisons between Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia, special considerations for individuals with early-onset Alzheimer’s disease, and the usefulness of clinical trials in finding new treatments for Alzheimer’s disease.
