Yeah, thanks Jeff. Will try this on my father-in-law. We've been worried about his memory for what seems like an age now, but the Doctors we've seen just attributed his memory issues to low mood.
We're sure it's more than that though, so I'll give this a shot.
Hi Jeff the clock test is used as part of a series of tests to determine cognitive, and where the clock is concerned, spatial awareness. It tends to show that people with a specific type of dementia , usually Alzheimer's , will draw the clock numbers in one half of the clock, as that's the only part their brain can see.
Hi jimmy1c defo agree but is good srarting point ALSO guess things could be complicated if have eye vision problem think that's why it's good idea to have any noticeable deficits checked out.
Hi. Just like to say I did this test and missed out the 12 and couldn't see what I had done wrong 😁 And the repeating back an address 6 times and only got to 4. I had tests and brain scan and they found nothing 👍 Doc said it was caused by stress and anxiety and I have fibromyalgia, arthritis ,type 2 and asthma. I always read your posts and look things up that you mention 😊
