T:Advantage to getting early diagnosis?
Q:Hi there.
I am a <age> year old female.
My mother had Alzheimer's and my grandma also had some form of dementia.
I have always had a terrible memory and I feel like it is getting even worse as I age.
Sometimes I can't quite find the word I'm looking for and it is really frustrating.
I also feel like my reaction time is slower.
When I answer a question at work it seems to take me longer to retrieve it out of my brain,  KWIM?
I'm not saying that I think I have Alzheimer's right now,  but given my family history,  what things would you all suggest I do?
I haven't thought about it much honestly,  but I am reading that a lot of people get it in their <age>'s.
Thanks for any information you can give me!
A:As far as i have been told and researched nothing can or will prevent it.
It is most common when hereditary and early onset diagnosis may provide more effective treatment.
Wish you the best.
