Navigating Sleep Disturbances in Lewy Body Dementia: Practical Tips and Community Support

  • Summary

  • This week, Curry and I share about REM Sleep Disorder and the importance of having your loved on video tape your sleep patterns.

    This episode also digs into the frustrating journey of finding effective sleep aids, featuring personal experiences with melatonin, Seroquel, Clonazepam, and CPAP machines. We discuss the challenges of distinguishing between dream states and reality, and the impact of sleep disturbances on daily life and relationships. Caregivers will find invaluable tips on tracking symptoms with checklists and journals, and the importance of providing clear evidence to doctors through videotaping behaviors. Lastly, we underscore the power of community, especially through Zoom support groups, as a vital resource for shared experiences and mutual understanding in coping with Lewy Body Dementia.
    Thank you all for your continued support and patience with us as we try really hard to get a new podcast done- hoping we get one a week but as you all know, Lewy and life sometimes get in the way. We know you all understand and support us anyway and for that we thank you!!! xoxo

    Remember...We are doing this for all of us and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
