Recently had a mri suggested and ordered by my Neurologist. When the results were complete and compared with a past mri a report was submitted my doctor. The doctor had the lady who handled the desk when I report for appointments call me and inform me that while there were visible changes in my brain the doctor felt the changes were due to normal ageing. Would you like to comment on this proceedure. My phone # is on file with the information given when I subscribed to your channel. I have yet to recieve a copy of the report . How can I get a copy of this report?

I've been trying for months to find out how to make contact with Dr Tam Cummings. Also what is the schedule for these zoom meetings so I can please join? I found your program on KZbin about 4 months ago and I can honestly say that Dr Cummings has changed my life! The things I've learned from her gave me the courage to talk more frankly to my husband's Neurologist and to finally take the step to enroll him with Hospice. My husband has Parkinson's disease and is not able to tolerate any of the medications. His Doctor has basically been treating him for comfort. I believe he is a victim of COVID DEMENTIA. Which, as far as I can tell isn't really being accepted by a lot of Doctors as a thing yet. Truly, we have suffered for 2.5 years since he got Covid I haven't had anyone to talk to about it. I would really love to talk to Dr Cummings about his case.

My husband is in a memory ward with mixed dementia incl Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia. He has been in care for 2 1/2 years. Until recently he was getting facet joint injections each 3 months. He can no longer lie still etc and is unable to continue this option. However he does not seem to be complaining of pain (he does get some pain relief medications). My question is in regard to pain. Does the progress of dementia reduce pain? He is 87 and his lumbar spine has crumbled.
