Doubting Alzheimer’s after 10yrs

Hi, it’s been a long time since I was last on this site. Wondering if any one had been through similar.

Ten yrs ago I was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s after feeling unwell and memory problems for 4yrs before.

I was put on a full range of Alzheimer’s medication including antidepressants. I was told to tell my children as they might also suffer with it. I had to give up work. I was 57 at the time.

A year ago I asked for a second opinion. They are now saying they don’t think I have Alzheimer’s, but can’t rule it out. But don’t know what it is and still prescribing Alzheimer’s medication.

I also had a massive heart attack approx 7yrs ago.

3 weeks ago I was sent to A&E with a long list of symptoms. Some symptoms have gone but left with head confusion and dizziness. I walk like I’m drunk memory has got worse I’ve the 3 weeks and permanently angry.

Sorry for rambling but so confused and upset, just want answers. But no one has any.
