Hello,

In my opinion, the symptoms are forgetfulness, difficulty in recognizing people, difficulty in finding the right words, and difficulty in doing household work.

Later on, the patient can have mood symptoms and fixed beliefs and even sensory disturbances.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
