have you been screened for dementia

[BMR Genie]

I am writing my dissertation on this topic and I want to say that it is very important to detect the disease in its early stages.

Welcome to BMR Forum, Ann5!

Can you self diagnose this disease? Asking for a friend.

I search it up for you, Keith.

"Is there a dementia test I can do at home?

If you suspect that your older adult is having problems with memory, thinking, or judgement, you may want them to take the SAGE test for dementia. This at-home pen-and-paper test is free, takes just 15 minutes, and accurately identifies early symptoms of Alzheimer's disease or dementia."

I don't know if anyone else has this problem. I don't forget anything in my life. I literally remember everything, however, there is one thing I don't remember. I always have to think hard and try to remember if I have taken my vitamins and medication each morning. It is very strange. I should use the weekly pill box thing but I don't. This is something that I deal with daily, it is very strange.

I think it's best if you could set an alarm, same time everyday to remind you about it, Fly. Make it a hobby to develop a muscle memory that you don't need an alarm to do it in the future.
