Lighten up, Francis. Charter Research provides all kinds of medical research, from memory loss to foot fungus and everything inbetween. Dementia doesn't have a singular cause. In fact, dementia is a catch-all term for a myriad of brain illnesses. It is a collection of symptoms, and not the name of a disease.
You're on a tirade against pain meds, and that has nothing, zilch, nada to do with this topic - which is how a person can help a loved one who doesn't know that they have a memory problem.
Charter research does memory screenings. If you do the screening and qualify, you can CHOOSE to participate in a pharmaceutical trial designed for specific things. For instance - memory loss caused by stroke might not qualify for these trials, but memory loss caused by Lewey Body Dementia might. Or maybe it must be Alzheimers only. The point, is that you can find out if you have dementia, by going through these screenings. You can always choose not to participate in a drug trial if you qualify for it.
