Yeah, to keep more strokes from coming along and making the whole thing worse. And then with Lewy body disease, to deal with things like the hallucinations and stuff, you'll probably also be given antipsychotics as well. And one thing that they're starting to realize more and more is it's very difficult to really figure out what kind of dementia people have just from... What's the scan called?

Or where you have Alzheimer's and Lewy body disease. And so... It can be really tough to suss out all the different kinds of dementia a person might have. But if you can do that, then you can put them on a drug regimen that could really kind of help more than just treating the Alzheimer's and letting the Lewy body go unrecognized and rampant.
