Not Just Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer’s disease is the most common cause of dementia, but it is not the only one.
Other causes include:
### Vascular Dementia
This results from problems affecting blood flow in the brain and may occur after strokes or smaller vascular injuries.
### Lewy Body Dementia
Symptoms can include cognitive changes, movement problems, visual hallucinations, sleep disturbances, and fluctuations in alertness.
### Frontotemporal Dementia
This can cause early changes in personality, behavior, judgment, or language, sometimes before significant memory loss appears.
### Mixed Dementia
Some people have more than one process
