[|Human|] My husband had a stroke when he was six years of age.  He now is 39 we have started to notice signs of memory loss, increased anger and irritablilty.  Our primary doctor said it should not get any worse however our nerologist said it looks like the first stages of dementia.  I am confused if it is vascular dementia why would our primary Doctor tell us it should not get any worse.  He is showing signs of disoringtation etc..  Please help my utter confusing and should i be worried something could happen to him in the next few years?
[|AI|]  HelloThanks for askingHistory of stroke increases the risk of a number of complications and progressive loss of memory is one of them. Repeated vascular insult on brain causes vascular or multi infarct dementia. The dementia is progressive, but the progression can be halted by taking proper medicines. Medicines like cholinergic Chat Doctor.  Other medicines like Semantic is also commonly used. Consult your doctor for proper treatment. Get his MRI done to see extent of damage in brain if any. Psychological tests like Mini Mental Status Examination will help in grading the extent of dementia and help to ascertain improvement. Thanks
