Comment on Vascular Dementia Resources for Caregivers

This article seems so very resourceful! I will read the links to find out whether there is a way to narrow down our loved one's condition. We ruled out hydrocephalus, but the doctors do not want to make a clear diagnostic (AZ or vascular dementia). Unfortunately my loved one started to develop high blood pressure about 6 years ago, but refused to take any medication (she is an advocate of natural treatments). Now we give her prescripion medications together with Aricept but unfortunately we believe that the damage is already done from all those years untreated.

The 5th symptom matters, so 'Give me 5 for Stroke' is preferable, but only if it's memorable. To make the 5 easier to remember, check that they can: WALK the walk & TALK the talk Get them to REACH out then ask them what they SEE and how they FEEL...

Women can begin showing symptoms a month before the actual attack. If a woman you know is experiencing unusual fatigue, sleep disturbance, anxiety, indigestion, weakness in the arms, anxiety, and a shortness of breath, this is serious, and she must get to a hospital immediately. Fewer than 30% of women who've suffered a heart attack had any chest pain prior to their heart attack. 43% of women who suffered a heart attack experienced no chest pain during the attack! 58% of the women who experienced heart attacks suffered shortness of breath just before the attack. 55% suffered weakness, and 43% suffered fatigue. 39% suffered from a cold sweat, and 39% suffered from dizziness or lightheadedness. Other women described pain between their shoulder blades, or back pain . http://www.insideheart.com/heart-attacks-in-women.html

It’s easy to miss heart attack symptoms at the initial stages because symptoms show up differently in women than in men. In fact, the top four symptoms are often misdiagnosed. Immediate intervention can mean life or death, so it’s a good idea for all women to be aware of the warning signs of heart attacks. http://www.womenhealthcenter.net/women-and-heart-disease.html

But how do I know when , my husband is having a bi polar moment or it's vascular dementia? Is it paranoia from his bi polar that is popping up with new endings to previous senerios (of years past) or it's vascular dementia from his diabetes, stroke 2 yrs ago & his heart attack from 6 yrs ago? He lives in a state of depression & is on bi polar meds that help, but this new thing of his is confusing me. He seems to live in his head creating new senerios & it's me he is verbally accusing. This has happen 3 times now & it's mind boggling. It's an unfair fight & I can't fight with him on this new level of his. Last night when he was thinking straight, I was able to get him to understand that what goes on in his head is him making himself a victim & he only hurts others when he speaks these new perceptions to me or anyone else. But in the heat of his anger, I can't get him to understand. He isn't diagnosed with vascular dementia, but our daughter who is a nurse wants me to contact his VA doctor & discuss it. He has taken to changing past memories endings to what he believes really happen. 1+1 now equals a different 2. What I have read today, online, sure helps in thinking this new thing he is doing, as in changing endings & demanding I admit to them, is vascular dementia. I really need help with this. So any input is welcomed.

A quick recognization of your bodily responses may increase your chances of survival. Because of having many heart problems, I was enrolled in a concierge Healthcare program from elite health. I was attacked by a severe heart attack in a party, luckily surrounded by many people. Some of the sudden changes in my body was recognized by me and anticipated immediately. I got a very severe chest pain which was almost unbearable for more than a minute. I got the suspicion that I might be having heart attack, and immediately called my physician on the phone, and explained my condition and its severity. Because of the immediate guidance, I was directed immediately to have an aspirin which I used to carry with me as prescribed by my physician. It was quite a frightening experience for me to face such a heart attack, but somehow I managed to be calm until 911 arrived. I was immediately taken to the nearest hospital, where already my physician were present and have got everything setup according to my medical history. And it was in some matter of seconds that everything was in control. A doctor, who already have the complete knowledge of the medical history and fitness of the person, extra ordinarily ameliorate your recovery process. Hence such a concierge level program from Elite health, helped me a save my life, like many others.

Anonymous, you make some very excellent points. It's so important to keep the lines of communication open, to try to get your parent out and engaged in the world, and to give your parent as much love and support as you possibly can. I think it's also important to recognize that there's a huge difference between depression and "the blues." As you said, depression is a serious illness, and it may take a lot more than our best intentions to treat it. No doctor who's worth her salt will immediately prescribe antidepressants, although that may end up being a good option. Antidepressants may indeed be mind altering drugs, but depression is a mind-altering illness. We've all been down in the dumps, but depression is much, much more than that. A good doctor will be able to help you and your parent figure out the difference. At the very least, she'll be able to reassure you and your parent that it's just a temporary slump. I also loved what you wrote about this being an opportunity to reach out and connect with your parent. Thank you so much for that.

This is a very helpful overview of depression and its impact on stroke risk. I have a suggestion. Toward the end of the post you say: "...if your parent or loved one has several of these symptoms for more than two weeks, it's time to call the doctor." I would suggest the the first call should not be to the doctor, but to take the time to listen and discuss your parents concerns every day for a week, to get a real sense of where they are and what they need. The parent should be the first person we connect to ... not the "third person" after calling the doctor. "Iif you notice lethargy and withdrawal from friends, family and activities of daily living in your parent, you should first take some time to sit down and listen to their concerns. Depression symptom also ioften "piling on" ( often a litany of loss) . I would explore opportunities for increased socialization (senior center, friends, religious groups, etc). ...long before I would call the doctor. Depression is serious stuff. But the first line of relief is the opportunity to get what is inside - outside, in a safe nurturing and caring environment. As a family member, I'd try that first. After all, an early sign depression is not a sentence of virtual solitary confinement, for which a physician would prescribe mind altering drugs. It is an opportunity to reach out, and you can both connect in ways you never imagined.

You're so right, DKT. Women may not think they're having heart attacks -- or perhaps even worse, they aren't taken seriously when they seek help. That's why it's important to get the word out.

The other BIG problem is denial. It's one thing to know and recognize the symptoms... quite another to act on them. This seems to be especially true for women... and the more a woman is in the role of caregiver (i.e., mom, wife) the more she is likely to put herself last. The stats for women are not encouraging: http://www.smart-heart-living.com/women_and_heart.html

Comment on After a Stroke: When Words Fail Us

Gwen — Mon, 21 Apr 2008 12:02:19 -0000
My mother had Parkinson's Disease, not a stroke, but the illness robbed her of the ability to formulate and articulate meaningful sentences. She often sat rigid and silent, like a stone, except for a soulful look in her eyes that belied the physical evidence. Growing up in the 1930s and 40s, Mom was taught to memorize poetry in her English classes, a practice that was common back then. She developed a lifelong love of poetry. Many a night after dinner, we would position Mom in a comfortable chair, propped on both sides with pillows, and take out a small stack of poetry anthologies. My husband, Harout, who has a beautiful reading voice, would start off the evening by reciting the first line of one of Mom's favorite poems. Quietly, almost imperceptibly, Mom would respond by reciting the second line back to her. Then Harout would take up the ball, so to speak, and recite the thrid line. And so it went, back and forth, till the poem was done. Mom's memory for her beloved poetry was astounding. I like to think our little "game" brought Mom as much pleasure as it gave me. In a world where rigidity reigns, the lilt and motion of that old familiar territory made it almost seem as if Mom was back in the old days, when she could race along on her bicycle, swim at the Y, or dance to her hearts content. -Gwen

I was so happy to read this. After my mother had a stroke last spring, she moved in with us. For the first couple of months she was so depressed becasue she couldn't speak clearly. We started listening to her old records together as a way of "talking" about our past - when I was a child and my father was alive. I think the music really made a difference for her. Her mood improved and she began to look forward to something.
