On average, do most women get a few good years in between menopause and dementia?

That's not what Jane said...

It only feels like years...and not in a good way.

 

  So you want to feel something good, do you?

Very good to hear! 

Thank you very much. Some good info in that!

I didn't know that 2 of 3 people with Alzheimer's are women. I do wonder about the life expectancy thing, though. And this sentence struck me as quite funny: "It’s important to note that menopause doesn’t cause Alzheimer’s." Did that really need to be included? LOL!

I'm grateful for friends and colleagues of similar age, for sure.  

I think the blurry message was that it looks like women who go through menopause young seem more likely to develop Alzheimer's IF they have that genetic marker.     I agree that friends of similar age are priceless.  :) 

I saw that, yes. They left out the word "early", if that was the message! 

Great answer!

You might be on to something... 

 

  Hey!
  Grrrrrrr.
