Hi,

I have been diagnosed with cervical stenosis with spondylosis and myolepathy at levels C4,5,6 and 7 in 2013.

After various strange symptoms with my memory and actions I have been told that, subject to mri, may have vascular dementia, due to spinal cord impingement cutting blood/oxygen supplies to brain.

Any thoughts please,

Mike.

    Hi leatherneck,

    I think some of your last post was spell checked, sometimes helpful, mostly not.

    Different types of early dementia mean some get better, most do not, and some settle with medication.

    Probably an mri or ct scan to tell complete story.

    Mike.

    Hi

    No, I have never visited the USA.

    When I was very young,5-12, my parents moved to East Africa and that seemed to quell my wanderlust.

    Now, I am too disabled to enjoy such trips.

    Mike.
