Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do something. Anything is possible.
Oh boy so:
1. Dementia with Lewy bodies, Parkinson’s disease dementia, and Alzheimer’s are three distinct differential diagnosis and no “respected” doctor in a field capable of diagnosing those is going to lump them together especially for a patient they’ve never seen.
2. BLD doesn’t have short-term memory loss and severe memory loss isn’t common until stage 4-5. Especially with BLD usually mood, visual hallucinations, and severe motor function issues are first. (Example: Robin Williams had early stages of it, and likely aggravated his depression). By stage 4, tremors and drooling are common. In stage 5 they can’t even feed themselves.
3. BLD develops in people in their 50s-70s, with an average prognosis of only 4 years. It progresses fast. If Biden had BLD then statistically he’d be dead.
4. PDD does have memory issues right from its start but while 70% of late stage Parkinson’s patients have PDD, they have Parkinson’s motor issues first, including a noticeable tremor in both motor function and constantly in speech. Example, Michael J Fox’s movements and speech even on the strongest Parkinson treatment meds. No magical pill combo is going to hide that.
You can literally read for yourself the details of this disease, look at examples of known people who have comparables, and realize this statement is a load of crap.
The diagnosis is:
-He’s really fucking old.
