My husband's signs and symptoms of LBD happened very rapidly. It was like a bomb going off. Hallucinations, dilutions, psychosis, paranoia. Everything that can happen did and he died less than 2 years after being diagnosed with early onset dementia. And he was so aware of what was happening to him. Fit, no health problems, active. And i had never heard of LBD. He was amazing how he coped. I feel very blessed that I was able to take care of him till the end.
