This is just a little information I found. Not sure what you need to know but I know others will respond🌹😊

Lewy bodies are clumps of protein that can form in the brain. When they build up, they can cause problems with the way your brain works, including your memory, movement, thinking skills, mood, and behavior. These problems can keep you from doing everyday tasks or taking care of yourself, a condition called dementia.

Lewy body dementia (LBD) is one of the most common types of dementia, after Alzheimer’s disease. It usually happens to people who are 50 or over.

@A myALZteam Member. I would contact your local Alzheimer's Association for information. Good luck.
