Leqembi Infusions

My husband is in early stage Alzheimers and our Neurologist recommended Leqembi. After much discussion my husband decided he wanted to try it even withe the serious side effects. After 3 infusions they did an MRI to look for side effects (brain bleeds). All was good. After the 5th infusion they repeated the MRI and it showed micro bleeds. Dr stopped the infusions for a month, he is getting another MRI this Friday and if those micro bleeds are healed he will restart the infusions next week. My question is… has anyone had a similar situation. Also if he got them once, aren’t they likely to come back again? We have a dr’s appt tomorrow morning and I have lots of questions for him.
