What is Alzheimer's Disease?


Alzheimer's disease is a progressive and rarely reversible chronic deterioration of all mental functions. Early manifestations included a decrease in attention span, impaired powers of concentration, some personality change and forgetfulness. As the disease progresses, there is a loss of computational ability, in addition to word finding problems and difficulty with ordinary activities. Ultimately, there is severe memory loss, complete disorientation, social withdrawal and loss of independence.
