[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor She has been diagnosed with cerebral atrophy and small vessel ischemia. Due to stroke there occur damage to neurons. The damage result in clinical symptoms, post stroke depression, and it may also complicate to dementia. She is on carbamazepine and this Chat Doctor.  But her symptoms of apathy, inability to talk should not be ignored. I would advise you to take opinion of a Psychiatrist for her symptoms. Many medicines like citicholine, cerebroprotein etc. help to decrease the progression of disease. Thanks
