Quote:Lewy body dementia is the second-most common cause of dementia after Alzheimer's disease. Considering that, it is not as widely diagnosed or recognized as would be expected. This is likely a result of its overlap with Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, which can make it more difficult to diagnose.
Something to remember.
