What Is Alzheimer’s Disease?

Alzheimer’s disease shrinks the brain, causing the brain cells to die. This leads to impaired cognitive functions. As the disease progresses, it can cause serious memory problems, impacting your ability to perform the activities of your daily life. Though Alzheimer’s disease has no cure, treatment, and ongoing care can help manage its symptoms and slow down the progression of the condition.

What Are the Symptoms of Alzheimer’s Disease?

The first sign of Alzheimer’s disease is memory loss, which is characterized by difficulties in remembering recent activities or specific events. Over time, this memory loss progresses, making it difficult for you to keep your thoughts organized, remember major events of your life, or recognize people you know.

Other common Alzheimer’s disease symptoms include:

Personality changes
Aggressiveness
Inability to make decisions
Difficulty concentrating
Mood swings

The later stages of the disease may also cause distrust of other people and delusions.

How Is Alzheimer’s Disease Diagnosed?

We will review your symptoms and ask you some questions to test your memory and thinking skills. If we suspect or find any abnormalities in your behavior or cognitive functioning, we will proceed with the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease, which includes:

Neurological Exam - We will check your senses of light and touch, balance, reflexes, muscle strength and tone, and coordination to examine your nervous system functioning.
Blood Test - To check for other conditions/causes that result in confusion and memory loss, including vitamin deficiency and thyroid disorders. It may also be used to measure beta-amyloid and tau protein levels, as the abnormal build-up of these proteins in and around brain cells is considered to be the cause of Alzheimer’s disease.
Imaging Test - We may order a CT or MRI scan to determine other conditions that cause memory loss, such as a brain tumor, stroke, or head injuries.

What Treatments Are Available for Alzheimer’s Disease?

We may recommend any of the following treatments to help manage your Alzheimer’s symptoms:

Medications

Cholinesterase Inhibitors - To enhance cell-to-cell communication, improving symptoms.
Memantine (Namenda) - To slow the progression of moderate to severe symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease.

Coping and Support

We will also help establish routines that help you:

Prevent losing crucial things, such as mobile phones, keys, and money
Stay organized at home, reducing the risk of slip injuries and confusion

Dietary Changes

We will recommend the following:

Foods that are nutritious and easy to eat
Water and other healthy beverages (but avoid caffeine as it increases restlessness, causing difficulty sleeping and frequent urination)
Milkshakes and smoothies that are rich in calories and proteins (it is a good choice when eating becomes difficult)

Physical Therapy

Our physical therapists can help you practice simple exercises and stretches to improve your:

Coordination
Balance
Muscle strength and tone
Overall mobility and functionality

Psychological Consultation

We will offer psychological counseling to address the mental and emotional impacts of Alzheimer’s disease, such as anxiety and depression.
