Nice to hear from you again and I'm really glad the cancer has stayed away. Sorry about the mental issues though and lets hope this combo of meds does the trick. My 79 yo MIL was initially Dx'ed with early onset dementia and put on a lot of diff meds. She was like a zombie until about a 1 1/2 later another doc determined that she was just having mini seizures and totally changed her meds and now she functions like a "normal" 81 yo.
