#FindingTheRightWords turns 2 today. Here I am w/my co-author #Dr.BruceMiller, a #doctor whose #empathy, #knowledge, and #generosity knows no bounds. That my father died of #early-onset #Alzheimer's couldn't be changed, but writing the #memoir w/ Bruce changed me, helping to put that experience of profound fragmentation (my father's; mine) into something a little more whole. W/so much gratitude to Bruce and the many #neurologists working to #EndAlz always and esp. during #worldalzheimersmonth

It's #WorldBrainDay. Thanks to all of the #neurologists, #psychiatrists, #gerontologists, #nurses and many others for taking care of our #brains and teaching us how do to so. A special and personal #EndAlz to those whose brains are having difficulties.

@ianrosewrites. I am so sorry to hear this and hope you feel better soon. Another reason to get the #shingles #vaccine -- and granted, it is still being researched by #scientists and #neurologists -- is that the vaccine may lower one's risk for #dementia. https://www.medpagetoday.com/neurology/dementia/104969

@mhoye. Would any #neurologists on mastodon care to weigh in on this study? I have had my shingles vaccination and very glad to have done it. My father had #early-onset #Alzheimer's so I'm especially interested to learn more. @neuro

#BruceMiller and I wrote #FindingtheRightWords for people with #dementia, their #caregivers, their loved ones, their #nurses and #doctors, including #neurologists, #geriatricians, and #psychiatrists. #narrative medicine cannot cure #Alzheimer's, but the power of #empathy, intense #listening, and #storytelling can help immensely. We are so grateful this reader thinks our book is helpful, even beautiful.💜

Sigh.
#Cardiologists and #neurologists, please test post infectious patients who have tachycardia when they sit or stand, for POTS.
Tilt table test…or a NASA Lean Test (can be done in office or at home, with no wait times or high costs).
Treatments exists. https://twitter.com/dysclinic/status/1630990762803429391
@Julie @w7voa. I would very much like to hear what #neurologists and other #researchers working on #Alzheimer's have to say about this article. https://stanforddaily.com/2023/02/17/internal-review-found-falsified-data-in-stanford-presidents-alzheimers-research-colleagues-allege/

@KnightADRC. "Cognition and function
Across all dose groups, there were no significant changes from baseline in any of the cognitive measures with donanemab treatment (data not shown)." This seems very important and I would love hear more from #neurologists et al. #EndAlz
I would love to hear what #neurologists and those working in #ADRCs think about this #BD-tau blood test that helps detect #Alzheimer's.Thank you.

@JesseF8693 @janie I think Herschel Walker begs the need for a healthy, national conversation about suspected #CTE. Given his football career I think it's safe to assume he is not suffering from #MentalIllness but from the #neurodegenerative effects of multiple concussions. Many #PCP and even #neurologists don't know the symptoms to recognize it, so cases are probably under-reported. Sadly, no real #medical treatment exists, other than #medication to minimize some of the crazy factor.

#FindingtheRightWords: A Study of #Literature, #Grief, and the #Brain is a memoir about my father's #dementia that I wrote with #Dr.BruceMiller of #UCSF. Here is a review, which I want to share with #caregivers, families dealing with #dementia, especially #Alzheimer's, the #medhum community, and #neurologists and #doctors interested in the field of #narrativemedicine and the potential power of combining #art and #science, #litstudies and #neuroscience.

@jfballenger. Dear Jesse, I'm a fan of your book on #Alzeimers and look forward to reading the next one on #dementia. In the meantime, I'm hoping to find others (#authors, people interested in #medhum, #neurologists, #neuropsychologists, #geriatricians, #caregivers, people with #dementia) to follow. Any suggestions? Many thanks.

@walaszek. Aha! Some of my favorite doctors, especially #neurologists and #geriatricians, were #English (and creative writing) majors! See #KenKosik, #BruceMiller, #SuzeeLee.
