This is exactly why I am going for med school. No joy can beat being able to understand and explain the human body this way. I love this.
Thank you! ❤️
My father has vascular dementia, I have been his caregiver for 3 years.
My dad is having an inpatient psych evaluation right now after being hospitalized for breaking his hip. It started 8 weeks ago seemingly out of the blue. Horrific hallucinations 24/7, full on sundowner syndrome. Extreme paranoia. I went to check on him one morning when my mom called saying he was scaring her. This wasn't normal for my dad so I went quickly and stayed for 7 weeks following him all day and all night. He saw dead bodies, maggots, etc. He tried to burn the house down to get rid of the people coming out of the ceiling etc...I Hid his keys, started paying their bills and arranging meds properly. Couldn't get help because he had no active infections to explain the psychosis. He has renal cell carcinoma but it hadn't spread and labs were good. He'd been awake for 4 days so he would crash for 2 days that's how I was able to get him to the hospital. Since he wasn't actively agitated they sent him back home. A week later he fell and broke his hip. He was calm after general anesthesia for a couple days then went nuts. Was moved to inpatient rehab for hip and went nuts again which required being transferred to geriatric psych facility for the evaluation he's needed for 2 months how. That's where we stand as of today. I'm sorry you're going thru this and sorry for dumping this here but I needed to get it out lol. His vascular system is terrible and he can no longer have more stents placed as he's got so many. We were worried about when a stroke would happen, never once knew of or worried about vascular dementia. I'll be very surprised if this isn't the diagnosis they come up with.
Hi there. My mom is experiencing symptoms of vascular dementia. Is there any medication. Also what is the life expectancy
@@awadheshsingh9948this is not the sort of thing you ask online. As a medical student, I would advice to be careful of the usual medications given for dementia, as they might cause more harm then benefit in vascular dementia (Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, such as Donezepil could cause arrhythmias for instance, leading to more infarcts).
My friend and neighbor had it at 90 and I took care of him for 4 years till he passed.
Yeh they happened to leave out the geeats is in the dancer
My mom passed away from this 2 years ago. I miss her so much. She was my best friend
judging by your photo, you will have this form of dementia, too. Change your lifestyle and habits now to lessen the dementia symptoms.
@@genkiferal7178 That comment was totally rude and uncalled for. Keep your opinions to yourself. Work on your filter
@@michellehollensteiner4643no, i won't. i work with morbidly obese people who have severe dementia and they wish they could live independently. When they need to pee/poo, they usually do it in a diaper and it can take a CNA hours sometimes to change them - because other patients need to be hang fed (like my own fat grannie) or are having a stroke or heart attack or a patient is being violent towards staff or another resident. If hurting feelings by slamming reality in your face now prevents you from the suffering I see daily, that is better than politely keeping my mouth shut. Much of the suffering is from the staff and caregivers who will never be able to do enough to make patients content.
BTW, when a person dies of heart disease, they slowlllyyyy drown to death in their own fluids. It is scary to watch. No amount of drugs can prevent all of the pain and fear associated with drowning.
@@michellehollensteiner4643how long did she pass when symptoms started showing?
How long did she last once she was diagnosed? My mother has it and I’m scared she will not last long.
The mini mental status test isn’t specific enough to identify transient ischemic attacks. And symptoms of dementia do NOT appear suddenly. They are usually subtle and progressive. By the time they’re detected, the disease has been active quite some time.
That is where I am at, no major stroke, just a gradual loss of memories, balance and finding the right words..😢
My mum passed during covid with Vascular Dementia. It was terrible for her, she had always been highly independent, mentally very strong. She ended up not knowing how to use her legs and she was in pain. She did have TIA's, Ischemic heart disease and CKD. I wish they could find a cure for these brain diseases.
We're sorry for your loss, Kim. 🙏🏼
RIP
@@duai7090 thank you
@@osmosis thank you
My mother diagnosed with vascular dementia after brain stroke in 2021.I can understand your moms pain.taking care of dementia patient is very challenging.
Love you osmosis team for such a Deep and detailed information
Most welcome, Aadil! 🙏🏼
Excellent and simple to grasp. Merci
You are welcome, George! ❤️
These videos are amazing, they are clear en very structured, which makes it so much easier to process the underlying mechanisms. I use these videos while studying for my exam psychiatry and must say that you have sorted out various things my professor failed to explain clearly :)). If I may, I would love to see videos on dementia with Lewy body, Frontotemporal dementia and Complex Regional Pain Syndrome as well. Keep making these. Kind regards, a fan from Belgium!
Wow! Thanks for the wonderful feedback, Ella! Made our day! ❤️
Thank you
You're welcome! 🙌🏼
highly informative
Thank you! ❤️
I know all successful people seek out and thrive on constructive criticism and advice. So am I to give advice you may wonder well my brother works for Dennis Collins for 10 years and if you don't know him just took him up on UA-cam he's best friends with Richard Rollins probably the most well-known classic car guy. My suggestion is maybe comment on people other than just the people that tell you how great your videos are and you say thank you and I'm not implying that you give a diagnosis or give medical advice. Regret and hope I don't sound like I'm looking for pity but if I want to see a psychiatrist at the age of 21 and I was prescribed clonazepam which triggered me to do other drugs so if you were to compare different patient situation I'm freaking 45 years old still got my looks and haven't even had a female girlfriend in 7 years and never been in love so yes I did some ecstasy and stuff it just seemed odd did someone might check it's lost in a big house I think it's a pretty serious neurological issue and I can only assume I got skipped over for a thank you because it's not fault that I took some drugs.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge.....its beneficial for me alot....
Always our pleasure! 💖
I hope I die peacefully in my sleep.
Hope you have a plan B because the majority do not die like that. I'd rather have cancer so I could at least have time to say goodbye.
@@cbryce9243 Can er is not a nice way to die. Live everyday as though it's your last, so you can say goodbye everyday. One day, you will be right.
@@cbryce9243 Cancer patients suffer terribly.
Amen. I pray won't e a burden to people.
@@Petal4822 yes, dear Lord spare all on here from suffering from that or any other illness.
Good luck 🧠
Tnx. Highly effective.
Most welcome, Hosseing! 🥰
Does homocysteine is the key factor as a promoter of the vascular disease ?
Can the tissue damage caused by an ischemic stroke resemble multiple sclerosis plaques/lesions?
Is IgA ( with autoimmune disease such celiac, Sjogren, Addison) and mthfr mutation with Vitamin B12 deficiency are associated with hyper homocysteine,, primitive reflexess and hemoglobulin levels ?
I started having these symptoms in my 20's after using stimulants like ecstasy. I'm 45 now and see improvement when I'm 100% sober and working out. I have an appointment with a Neurologist next week. I heard drug induced vascular dementia can be reversed. Not sure how much can be learned without a brain scan which I cannot afford
@@aisalsoforaudra wasn't expecting anything like that I truly appreciate it buddy. Hope you have an awesome Thanksgiving
Are you sure you have vascular dementia? People with VD supposedly die pretty quickly
Would these be symptoms of Parietal Lobe issue if the person has been mechanically inclined for his entire life and now age 60? Problem solving of understanding credit card debt, making a simple cut on a pipe to make fit, changing directions of a door on a clothes dryer, not knowing enough to change to a different blade on a reciprocating saw????
Hello 👋
I just found out few weeks ago my mum has this ! Am so worried and afraid
I’m sorry to hear that. Your fear is understandable. It’s hard for family
My mum has been diagnosed with vascular dementia
study the causes, then make sure that **you** don't give the same dementia. I guess you'd call that "seeing the silver lining" or "making lemonade from lemons"...or a "wake-up call".
Sanity check @3:17, is vascular dementia considered “pre” dementia, and can eventually be diagnosed as dementia. Or is vascular dementia still dementia?
It is a form of dementia, not as common as Alzheimer’s. Those diagnosed have a shorter lifespan than those with Alzheimer’s - unfortunately, about four years.
Hi
I watched your Hemochromatosis video.this was very helpful for me . Thanks for this information.
I have a question
My daughter 6 years live sick mostly from 2 years coughing sore throat some time fever,low in weight and very skinny, weak,
,I want buy the cod liver oil , so could you share please what brand is the best brand with non chemical base prepared vitamins and healthy oils and medicine, specially cod liver oil .
Please must reply ASAP .
In my country Melrose cod liver oil and Rosita and bio island Brauer are available,
If no one is best in this please tell me best brand name and website link .
One question is that after infusion of iron 1000ml dose
Ferritin went very higher 1000 and after 1 year now ferritin is 200 but still high the the average (50 to 150)
And symptoms are which you have already told in your Hemochromatosis video.
You told 2 ways one give blood and one medicine, is medicine has any side effects ?, if yes so what are ?
And with 200 ferritin ,I want to decrease it what other thing o can do ?,
What vitamin I can take ?
What fruits and vegetables I can eat to decrease and fight to iron inflammation ,please reply me ASAP.
Thanks
I am sorry your child is ill, but it is illegal in the US to practice the kind of medicine you are requesting here. Doctors cannot prescribe treatment without seeing the patient and after taking tests of many kinds. Plus, western medicine in most cases, vitamins are not their forte'.
Too much iron can be deadly. Do not treat without a medical doctor.
I think zinc decreases the effects of iron. Obviously, don't let her eat meats high in iron if you think iron is her problem. make sure that she and her house and room are extremely clean, because bacteria in the body uses iron to multiply. If her iron is too high, she will be more prone to bacterial infections.
When she begins having her menstural cysle at about age 15, her blood iron should be fine. It is very easy to give/take too much iron otherwise!
Look up a nutrient-rich or nutrient-density diet. Dark leafy green, citrus fruits, sunflower seeds, winter squashes are high on the list of nutrient-dense foods. Fresh seafoods also can be. Grains often are not. If she is too skinny, then encouraging her to eat a lot of **fresh** sesame seeds (or tahini) and sunflower seeds might help her gain weight.
@@genkiferal7178organ meat is most nutrient-dense
😍👍
🥰❤️🙏🏼
I HAVE JUST BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH VASCULAR DEMENTIA, AND I AM JUST TURNED 60 , MY DOCTOR DOCTOR HAS TOLD ME THAT THIS IS A YOUNG AGE TO HAVE THIS ILLNESS, DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW LONG YOU CAN LIVE WITH THIS ILLNESS. THANKS
5 years is the typical life span. Typically because more strokes happen. Etc.
I feel there are going to be much more cases of this now and in the future...(i wonder why????)
I think my dad is suffering from this.
He started going down hill fast after his BOOSTER.
Thats really unfortunate but correlation doesn't mean causation.
@@jotato_chip exactly.
My friend’s dad also went downhill after his booster.
Ridiculous - it has nothing to do with vaccines. Sigh. Your dad probably brushes his teeth too - does that mean that toothpaste caused his dementia?
@@Petal4822 And would have gone downhill without a booster. This has zero to do with a booster shot.
There's gotta be something they can do! 😠
Frustrating for sure, I was just diagnosed with it😢
@@ArtistGayleenTaylor I'm sorry. Keep your body strong.
Blessings in an abundance of the faith. I salute you. 😘🙏Grace and peace be unto you and to this place. God bless you. 💌Thank you. Will you believe and receive Jesus Christ as your LORD and personal saviour??? I do. 🤍
This will be happening more and more with poor air quality.
