I would like to share my Journey with you. I'm 67, diagnosed 5 years ago with alzheimers, or possibly FTD (frontotemporal dementia). Jim and I live on the north shore of Lake Ontario. Two of our sons live in Ontario, two in British Columbia, one in Nova Scotia, and we have thirteen grandchildren!

Day Four/Five/Six of Vinpocetine
Well on Day Four I made it through a 3 hour interview for a documentary for CBC with hardly a brain glitch at all. Day Five we travelled to Ottawa to help Jim's Mom celebrate her 87th birthday, and then spent the evening playing Canasta with my siblings and their spouses with no problems. Today was a day of traveling on snow and ice covered highways to get home again, and I managed to keep it together just fine. Mind you I had my eyes closed a good deal of the way! So far I'm thinking vinpocetine may indeed be helping to keep things less scattered in my head. I will definitely keep on taking it, and keep you posted.
Glad you made it home and glad the meds are working.
ReplyDeleteMary...Wow! it sure does sound like this vinpocetine is working. Keep it up and you will be the talk of the conference fluttering around like a butterfly. The last 3 days have been productive for you! Good wishes for continued improvement.
