my husband's family on his dad's side had numerous members with Alzheimer's. My late husband was diagnosed at 59 based on neuropsych testing and family history. He tested negative for Psen 1&2, Apoe 3/3. When I tested for ApoE before I tested him I came back 3/3 - thought I was safe. I have a family history of women with dementia. At almost 72 and alone would be nice to know my risk - no symptoms currently but most of the women started in late 70s or 80s. Maybe I will look into the blood test he mentions. Was sure his would come back with at least on ApoE4 but nope, 3/3
