The Silent Symptoms of Dementia: Watch Out for These 6 Warning Signs

[@sheiladykes8851]

I’m so sorry for you! That is my biggest fear! My mom and I are best friends and I dread the day we part in life. I cry writing this to you! I feel for you. Keep yourself busy, join groups that can help with the grief, and go do something that makes you happy because you know that’s what she would want for you!!! You will be in my prayers! You are strong!!!

Sheila, my mom passed from dementia as well. I also took care of her on a daily basis. The last several years of her life, she didn't know me as her daughter. I was sometimes her sister, & other times her 10 year old childhood friend, Ava. Cruelest disease emotionally to go through. I'm so sorry you had to go through this as well.

[@kippywylie]

63 years old I was convinced that I was starting down the dementia road. All 6 signs were with me. In retrospect two things were generating this decline and thankfully it has passed. 1. My personal life was in turmoil with not only marital problems, but with me "catastrpohising" everything. 2. Was hearing loss. This is huge and so few people recognize it. When every minute of your day the brain is working over heated trying to simply fill in all the gaps you cannot hear.... The processor overheats. Now with good highest quality hearing aid, and with following mindfullness in my daily life.... I'm sharp again at 73

My mother-in-law had signs of dementia and we took her in for a full physical and it turned out she was actually severely anemic. The doctor put her on some high iron medication. It took three months but her iron went slowly up. After we got that fixed all her dementia symptoms were gone. I really appreciate your cautionary thing about not diagnosing your spouse.

One thing I learned is that your elderly person can be suffering from a urinary tract infection (often brought on by a catheter). Suddenly my mother was talking out of her mind, saying weird things. The skilled nursing facility thought nothing of it. I insisted that something was wrong, so they sent her to the hospital for tests. My friend told me to have them check her urine. Sure enough, she had an infection. After a couple days on antibiotics, her mind was clear as a bell. None of the hospital staff knew this.

[@shelbylou02]

Very odd. I work in a nursing home and it's the first thing we suspect. At both our local hospitals it's the first thing they check as well.

[@nubianess100]

Unbelievable! That😮 should be the first thing that any medic would check, the urine.

[@jackiepowell7513]

Uti s commonly. Bring on hallucinatory or confused state. Most medical staff are abundantly aware of this fact.

[@Angela-zf8sn]

Thanks for commenting on this we seen this play out and yes was a uti infection! Never knew a uti could do this.

[@donnazasgoat2274]

The facility I was in just assumed that since I have liver disease my sudden confusion was hepatic encephalopathy. Turns out it was an infection UTI and the confusion lifted with the use of antibiotics. The ignorant doctor was ready to send me out to the ER for paracentesis. Luckily my sister who is a Nurse Practioner said no until they tested for UTI.

[@soarornor]

One thing I’d add to the list of causative factors is too much constant prescription medication. Most elders are on at least 12 medications working in combination. When I checked my mom’s meds out, everyone of them had memory loss as a potential side effect. When a person is going down that path the symptoms can seem like dementia and unfortunately they’re too out of it to be able to properly complain with an accurate description of what they’re feeling. So they’re written off as an age related dementia/Alzheimer’s patient. If a loved one is having cognitive issues the first thing I’d check is what prescription drugs are being taken and to gradually get them off every one unless absolutely needed. Most doctors are amazingly passive about this issue. Since their income streams are tied to this they’re only too happy to prescribe more. This over prescribing of drugs is the worst health destroyer there is. But it’s a goldmine for doctors.

[@Puppies-Plants-Politics]

I think the prescribed medications play a bugger role than we will ever know.

[@JN-wr9he]

Do true, my mum started to change after she got on carbamazepine - which has strong associations with dementia and mood swings. Unfortunately, it would be too risky to take her off it, so we have to live with knowing that what she takes to not die is gradually destroying her brain.

[@livableincome]

My father was prescribed oxycodon for nerve pain. After waiting a year to see a neurologist for this pain, dad gave up. He was certain he was developing dementia, not realizing it was the oxycodon combined with bereavement and family stressors. He was not given the help he needed and the wait for neurologist was just too long. So he took his own life. He thought he was being logical. And in an age-ist world, too many people have accepted this as o.k. It is not. He just needed real medical attention and counselling. I wasn't able to be there for him. My poor dad. A preventable death following another preventable death in the family a few months before. Our health care system is deteriorating. We need to educate ourselves where we can. But people need access to real health care too. Not just narcotics and other harmful drugs. When you have excrutiating nerve pain you should not have to wait 14 months to see a specialist.

My daughter is autistic and this describes her except the organization. She is an organization whiz. She asks me if she can organize each space of the house and she does it wonderfully. She first organized the pantry top to bottom at 4 years old using a stool and it took her hours. She loved every second!!! Still does. It is so sweet and I love opening a drawer or door and seeing her special touch all over the house, her joyful special way makes our house so full of sunshine 🌞. She faces many challenges but it is worth every moment of struggle. Many times learning skills is like groundhog day, every day is the first day over and over until one day it clicks, sometimes as much as a year or more since beginning, and she just gets so excited. We have been in speech therapy since 3 years old and we work on reading every day, she is now 10 and has begun reading common sight words. It is so exciting to see her world unfold and open in new amazing ways as she can read signs and Bob books. Anyways I went on and on but I hope all who are encountering these neuro challenges and deterioration keep up their spirits and determination to keep trying keep working 💪, don't give up! 🥰💞

This is incredible. I am a physical therapist assistant so clearly I don’t diagnose anyone with dementia but I do home health care so I work with these patients. It’s amazing how what you eat as well as your urogenital health affects your mind. When I see a patient who is normally pretty sharp but suddenly seems confused… Nine times out of 10 it’s a urinary tract infection.

Totally agree re UTI’s/kidney probs affecting brain function. I experienced this myself for several years, aged 35-39. Two years of a monthly rotation of antibiotics, before ditching them all and taking zinc. The mental symptoms were very much a major part of each infection and completely floored me each time. 23 years ago, but I would definitely still recognise the onset.

Yes, my mom is dealing with dementia and a UTI made it worse. Years ago I went over her meds, took her off cholesterol meds (statins cause memory loss), and others she did not need. She got better. Sounded normal. She is now in a home, Kaiser prescribed amlodipine and I said NO! It causes memory loss and she is in MEMORY CARE AT THE HOME! I researched and found out that Fiji water that is high in silica flushes out aluminum through our urine. Also Taurine is good for memory loss, and vitamin B12. I put it in her nightstand and would give it all to her when I visited. I noticed yesterday that it was gone and questioned the main people at the home. They said they took it b/c they cannot allow any medications that are not on the Dr's list. I said TAURINE, CRANBERRY CHEWS AND B12 ARE NOT MEDICATIONS THAT'S WHY I WANT HER ON THEM. They said they need her Dr. to approve them. I said HER DR. APPROVED A BLOOD PRESSURE MEDICATION (AMLODIPINE) THAT CAUSES MEMORY LOSS!!!! You guys, you need to do your own research and demand things.

Both on my parents suffered from dementia. Both started showing signs at about 80, and both lived to be 89, but by the end neither one knew my name anymore. My dad actually got more easy going, but my mom became paranoid, combative and argumentative, and lost her great sense of humor. My brothers and I took care of her at home for years before a stroke put her in the hospital and then a nursing home the last 1 1/2 months of her life. Every day was a battle with her. She didn't want to do anything she needed to do, told each of us we didn't love her, accused us of trying to poison her when we gave her meds, told us we'd be glad when she was dead, and so on.

After my Mom passed and we had learned more about dementia we realized that there were signs that slowly progressed over the course of 10 years that we missed. The big one was personality change. She became sad and angry. We all thought she was depressed, including her Dr. (that’s a whole other story) but that wasn’t the case completely. In the end she declined very rapidly and died the night before her 73 birthday. I’m sorry for everyone going through this with a loved one. xo

Hubby passed over 2020. I stopped all meds, used Thiamine and healthy diet and just let-it-be. Needed to stop working and nursed him 24/7 for 6 years. Realised later that, although not diagnosed, he was suffering 10 years earlier. Such a cruel disorder which is most often not understood.

[@freakinfrugal5268]

What were the early signs over those 10 years?

[@yellowwoodstraveler]

I'm more concerned about the stopped meds. What were they and why did you stop them? Did his doctor know?

[@nicothenatural]

@@yellowwoodstraveler Doctors aren't Gods. They're real people who are trained in petro chemical pharmaceuticals, which often have side effects far worse than the symptom they're "treating." I've had Doctors try to treat me, and when I chose to use natural methods and lifestyle changes they ridiculed me. I am far better for it. I've treated myself better than any Doctor, ever. They're bought and paid for by Big Pharma. Many don't know nearly as much as Dr. Berg does nor do they care to educate themselves outside of the realm of their indoctrination.

[@yellowwoodstraveler]

@@nicothenatural I agree that a healthy lifestyle can go a long way to preventing or sometimes reversing illness. However, calling medicines petrochemicals is disingenuous. Petrochemicals are often used somewhere in production but they are very common and very useful being an abundant source of organic molecules. These are used during synthesis though not necessarily a part of the final product. Didn't your mom ever slather you in Vaseline as a kid? THAT'S a petrochemical. It's proper name is petroleum jelly. “You know what they call alternative medicine that's been proved to work? - Medicine.” - Tim Minchin

[@ginadew9180]

@@yellowwoodstraveler His meds had him in an unnatural state - lacking participation, quiet, abnormal behaviour - like washing his hands in the toilet, and him being aware of it and asking "why am I like this?" Meds added to his turmoil. He had 4 different pills, the names of which I don't remember. All I used was Thiamine, and at night would sometimes use a histamine to relax him so that he could sleep. It was an executive decision that I don't regret. Every day was taken as it comes and the symptoms were dealt with through management as opposed to meds. For example, when he put the stove on at night, I switched off at the mains, when he wanted to hurt himself, I hid knives, etc. when he walked unsteadily I lifted all rugs, etc etc. I don't regret my decision and will do it all over again.

I loved my mom, but looking after her was hard but easy with her personality turned sweet! My dad got dementia in the middle of my mom's decline but I didn't notice because I was so busy and beyond stressed being a single mother of 3 children, working part time, looking after my parent's, putting up with an narcissistic boyfriend and looking after his mom! My dad always had a bad temper and as time flew by, I became an empty nester, got rid of the boyfriend, his mom passed away and I ended up moving in with my parent's. My mom was in her 7th year with dementia and my Dad still refused to put her in a home! I looked after her full time with the help of home care nurse's but Dad became physically violent and sexually aggressive. Long story short, I saw markings on my mom, the police got involved, a Caseworker got involved, Mom was finally put in a hospital, Dad went to jail for 3 days, and so on. He blamed me, it got really worse. Mom passed away in the hospital in 2018, 3 days before my 50th birthday, than 2 months later I had to run for my life! That is what Dementia did to my Dad! He passed away this pass March of 2022 alone in his house and it's been so hard for me that I couldn't see him for three years. The guilt is so huge but I had no choice. Believe me, if the dementia didn't make him aggressive and violent, I truly would've cared for him. Love you so much Dad!🥰

Once as a teen, I mentioned to my dad it hurt when I peed (dad being a wonderful doctor) and he tested my urine, said it was full of blood (no, I was not menstruating at the time) and put me on an antibiotic.

Silent symptoms of dementia often go unnoticed in the early stages but can be critical to detect. Subtle memory lapses, such as forgetting recent events or important appointments, are early indicators. Difficulty finding the right words or frequently pausing mid-sentence may also signal cognitive decline. Mood changes, such as increased irritability, anxiety, or depression, are common but often overlooked. Trouble with planning or completing familiar tasks, like managing finances or following a recipe, can gradually appear. Social withdrawal or reduced interest in hobbies might also indicate early dementia. Recognizing these signs early can help with timely diagnosis and care. Great video, Doc!

Dr. Berg, my mom and grandmom had dementia. Although their doctors could not do a direct blood test to test for it they went by their symptoms, which you mention here exactly. Though they also had other conditions as irritable bowel syndrome, reflux, depression, stress which sometimes would not let them sleep which I think worsened their dementia, etc. One physical effect from dementia that further alerted their doctors was that the brains of my poor mom and grandmom were being reported on their CT scans as " shrinking " and " losing volume ". It was heart breaking to hear such things and it was hard for them too because they realized that they were having problems with their memory and were not able to do much about it. Their doctors did not make any recommendations about it either. You do. This parallels what you talk about in this video. Dr. Berg, you are a Godsend for helping us understand such things. Your presentations are going to help a lot of people at least improve their health because they are very clear and excellent. I lost grandmom at close to age 103 at a nursing home which did not care much about her by putting her in a room with no heat. She had dementia, but she could still talk and reason. Her hearing and sight made it tough for people to see how far her dementia was, but still a life is a life. Just because someone has dementia they are still a human being. They would not feed her or clean her. I had to do it. They did not even give her the medicines. Eventually she got chest congested and got pneumonia from the cold room. Their own radiologist told them to do follow up care after finding pneumonia on a chest X ray. They ignored him. They did not even tell me about it and just let her drown in her own lung secretions. The least they could have done was call 911 to send her to a hospital. They even refused to give her back to me. I also found her with bruises on her forehead which they ignored to explain. New York State, the Department of Health and even the District Attorney all protect these nursing homes. They all ignored us. This was a nursing home in the Bronx, Riverdale, New York. Diseases like dementia puts us all in danger if we are alone, find ourselves in a situation like my grandmother with criminals who took away her life and fear no prosecution, and if we live in a state like New York that does not prosecute repeat offenders from nursing homes and does not care about the elderly population. Age should not be a death sentence to our parents or grandparents, but that seems to be the pretext that they use to hurt them, including dementia. Thanks

My heart is so broken reading this tragic dementia life story. I am absolutely shocked, and more so because this is happening in the USA. My sister was diagnosed with on st Alzheimer’s at age 49 and our family rallied around her. She was given the best care by her husband for 9 years until he was diagnosed with cancer and then only did he agree to let her go to a nursing home. Sadly he passed 3 years before her. The nursing home staff were kind and attentive and we were there to give them a hand too. So, when people in the UNITED KINGDOM grumble about the NHS and nursing homes, I suggest they read this man’s tragic story of his mother. 😢

My mother was still living on her own and had all her head up to the age of 90 with NO signs of dementia, she then suffered a broken hip and was back on her legs within a few days after surgery, it was amazing, but it's the general anesthesia for the surgery that actually started her dementia, she had to be moved to a nursing home within a year after that...she passed away 6 years later. It was confirmed by the doctors community that indeed general anesthesia can cause this with elderly people...

[@Lionforaday]

You're 100% right about this. No one knows why this is exactly, and I'm guessing that no one in the medical community talks about it because, like poly-pharmacy (many medications), it's something that implicates that community. As well, most surgeries are considered necessary, so perhaps it's considered "a necessary risk." It's too bad, though, bc we could instead be looking at alternative drugs to induce anaesthesia that wouldn't have this effect.

"He said 'no' to her, she said 'no,'" too, and then they went there and looked around. It was just like we said."

I went to the doctors and I did allergy shots and ran all these tests. It wasn't until I came across an article about silver fillings and how they can contain mercury, and then I realized I in fact had a filling that needed to be removed. The dentist said parts of it had already fallen out and that it was rotted all around that part of my tooth. Worth every penny to get that removed. Rash went away within a week and has stayed away.

As to her brain she was an abused child by her mother and stepfather and lost the upper portion of her brain above and behind her left eye at three years of age when assaulted by her mother. She has IBS/IBD whereas her bowel movements are infrequent and she never feels hungry and when she's told she has to eat only picks or has a light snack yet her body doesn't break down fat only stores it. She also has two brain tumors one on the brain stem the other located where the missing part of the brain was. She has seizures, migraines, balance and coordination problems, reading disorders, vision and hearing problems, difficulty putting thoughts into words and requires me to finish her sentences to people or get her thoughts out as I seem empathetic to her emotions and thoughts, after sunset she forgets that we're divorced and wonders where I am but during the daylight remembers that we mutual divorced and decided it's better to be friends and have me as a helper for her.

That said, my husband is a sugar addict and this video is meant for him. I probably remind him too much of his cognitive decline but I feel so frustrated when there is so much he can do to reverse his situation. I will show him this video and the other you referenced in this one. I think he wants to do it as he asked me for the info that says how to do Keto. Meanwhile, I can fix his coffee with MCT oil, put nutritional yeast in his eggs, and make him salads and keto meals.
