Dementia or something else?

2018-02-02 06:52:53
My father had brain stroke couple of years back. He has recovered from it but now he seems to be having trouble remembering things.. specially recent/daily things like eating medicines, he would ask same question again and again even when answered to each time. Is this dementia? Can this be treated?

It might be dementia. Yes it can be treated but medicines only stop further detoriation. Full recovery is difficult.
