I decided to drop out of the scientific trial I was participating in after almost 5 years.
I am having a good morning. I feel alert and less confused.
Thus I surprised my wife when I told her I didn't want to go to my trials MRI this afternoon. I wanted to drop out of the trial completely.
I quess it is not very altruistic of me but I was told the study would last only 5 years. I get virtually no feed back from them.
I had an MRI after my subarchnoid bleed.
I want to use what little energy I have toward getting back to walking.

My worse day after 4 years of Alzheimers
One might think my worst day was when I fell on my face and had a subdural hematoma.
Or when I was flown to get an MRI after falling down and hitting my head on the glass down and found to have a subarachnoid bleed.
Today I woke up a little more confused than usual. I don't know why.
Today was dreadful for me not because I had to start the prep for my colonoscopy but because I was not allowed to eat anything.
I have been having a snack every hour because it comforts me.
Not having those snacks made me feel miserable.
The fasting did result in dropping my morning glucose from 220 to 170.
Can Ozempic help with Alzheimer's?
The drugs, which belong to a class of medications called glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) agonists, work by altering the metabolic system and lowering inflammation throughout the body. Scientists suspect this could help slow the progression of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease.May 12, 2023
