What are the signs and symptoms of dementia?

Signs and symptoms of dementia result when once-healthy neurons (nerve cells) in the brain stop working, lose connections with other brain cells, and die. While everyone loses some neurons as they age, people with dementia experience far greater loss.

The signs and symptoms can vary depending on the type and may include:

Experiencing memory loss, poor judgment, and confusion

Difficulty speaking, understanding and expressing thoughts, or reading and writing

Wandering and getting lost in a familiar neighborhood

Trouble handling money responsibly and paying bills

Repeating questions

Using unusual words to refer to familiar objects

Taking longer to complete normal daily tasks

Losing interest in normal daily activities or events

Hallucinating or experiencing delusions or paranoia

Acting impulsively

Not caring about other people’s feelings

Losing balance and problem standing for a reasonable amount of time

Typical questions might include asking about whether dementia runs in the family, how and when symptoms began, changes in behavior and personality, and if the person is taking certain medications that might cause or worsen symptoms. ms with movement.

So last few weeks my body randomly overheats then doesn't, or at least I thought it was until I visited the hospital about 2 weeks ago. They confirmed that while I don't have anything serious, my symptoms (at the time also got hives) indicated I most likely had an allergic reaction, so they referred me to an allergist. Fast forward and last few days it got worse, as now I'm not getting enough sleep when before I did get enough sleep just that I woke up and couldn't fall back for awhile.

I've pinpointed it to either me being allergic to highly processed meat, intolerance to anything containing large amounts of histamine, and/or something else but histamine worsens it. I didn't book an appointment with the allergist because I wanted to do some A/B testing beforehand to not waste the allergist's time. My symptoms have started to get better today, but it got real bad yesterday on Saturday; for anyone wondering, I stopped asking old questions I posted from SimilarWorlds like a month ago, so this is a recent issue.
