For My Patients - A Physician's Guide to Alzheimer's Disease

You have just been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease and are devastated. You may have seen other people with the condition, and don't want that to be you. Bad thoughts keep running through your head, the symptoms that began a while ago, and were ignored as "old age." You, finally went to a doctor who said, "it's nothing, it happens to everyone as they get older." And you accepted that explanation, because it was the best you could receive at the time. At least it wasn't Alzheimer's disease.
There will be a cure. But our present way of "doing business" must be changed. The statement, "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results," is attributable to Albert Einstein. Obviously, what we have been doing for more than 100 years hasn't worked. The research process needs to be changed.
Rather than re-hashing the information you already know, I have tried to present information not generally seen elsewhere. This is personal to me. As a result, I have, over the last 30 years developed a technology that will hopefully diagnose Alzheimer's disease much earlier than present techniques, and a treatment that helps Alzheimer's, but only for a short period of time. However, the fact that it improves symptoms at all, which nothing else has done so far, opens a new avenue for research.
