Hi,

I'd like to know when exactly a person suffering from Alz starts getting agitated and shows these dramtic mood changes. You know, when htey suddenly scream at you for no reason at all and things like that. Can it happen in the early stage, or would it have to wait till the middle stage?

Pls reply.

A load of thanks,

Ashwathi Iyer Smiler

My husband started with the agitation about 3 years after diagnosis, but every person is different.

Good Luck.

There is no 'exactly' for anything w/AD. The things you describe can happen at any time, or maybe, for some, not at all. It has been said that "Once you've seen one person with Alz, you've seen ONE person w/Alz". You can only prepare to be flexible for whatever comes and whenever it happens.
