[|Human|] My mother has a history of mental illness and we suspect she is showing more and more signs of dementia.Is there a test her doctor can implement and if not, where do we go to get some form of diagnosis? She is failing to be ale to hold a logical discussion of any kind, displays catastrophic reactions to day to day comments and is repeating herself more and more.Daily tasks are becoming more obviously challenging like knowing which key opens the door of her unit.
[|AI|]  HiT hank you for using HM. I understand your concern. Dear only confirmatory way to diagnose dementia is clinical evaluation.More detail we have to do MUSE means mini mental status examination. You can download it from net. Brain imaging can only give supportive idea to diagnose. But final decision and treatment depend upon clinical presentations. Proper and systemic clinical evaluation by psychiatrist or Neurologist can give better conclusion. If still you have a query then feel free to ask. Happy to help you. Do not forget to say than if you are helped.
