in I Am Living With Alzheimer's or Other Dementia
Hello, I’m new to the group. I was diagnosed with vascular dementia after suffering 7 small strokes two years ago. I was impacted cognitively, confusion, anxiety, short term and memory loss initially. Since then I feel like I’m falling apart. Over the last 6 months I began having intense dreams, loss of taste, lack of saliva creation. I have also battled severe chronic pain for the last 16 years forcing me to live on pain meds.
Does anyone else struggle with intense dreams ?
