I thank you for all your concerns as I read more visual dementia is the most missed diagnosed dementia. I took her to the eye doctor he said eyes are perfect health. Neurologist didn't check the visual cortex. The broca's speech part is now being effected the neurologist only mentions severe dementia nothing about lewy bodies. Should I get a second opinion,
I do agree though with JeanGibbs that it would be a good idea to seek a second opinion from a well established dementia clinic/hospital department. She is correct in the fact that hallucinations are not the only significant symptom of Lewy Body and this is not the only dementia to produce hallucinations.
For instance My BIL has dreadful visual hallucinations accompanying his dementia but not Lewy Bodies.
I on the other hand do have Lewy bodies and I live with hallucinations that are auditory, olfactory and visual. Sadly these are not the only symptoms that are different from other dementias. As I'm sure you've come across in your research there are also the Parkinson's style movements and our cognitive functions/loss vary from other forms of dementia.
I completely understand your wanting to immerse yourself in knowledge and get a key to this terrible disease that both you and your wife live with, but please seek a second opinion.
I know from both myself and my BIL how important it is to diagnose the correct dementia and treat it accordingly. We've both been previously misdiagnosed and it made life harder.
I would also check for a Urinary Tract Infection, they can produce no obvious symptoms but are often the cause of hallucinations.
If it does turn out to be LB then while I'm stable in mine I'm happy to offer help where I can.
Why do you bring up Lewy Bodies? Does she have other symptoms that would suggest that type of dementia?
