Storm Warning: The Ten Warning Signs of Alzheimer's Disease

The diagnosis of Alzheimer's today is not the hopeless forcast that it has been in the past. There are new medications that will postpone the more advanced symptoms and allow the patient to function more fully. I am amazed at all the early-onset Alzheimer's patients I've met on the Internet are able to accomplish with their Web sites and online support groups. And there is so much hope for the future, hope for newer and better medications, better methods of diagnosis, and even preventative measures. Recognizing the symptoms and having getting that complete examination are all important as the earlier the diagnosis, the greater the hope, and the better both patient and caregiver can be prepared for the approaching storm.
