Also I’m sure there are pre-treatments or lifestyle changes that could slow it down or lessen symptoms.
there absolutely are, currently, and the science is going to start developing finally, i believe. The pharma cos focusing on amyloid plaque (instead of why it's there) have gotten literally nowhere so far. But people like Dr. Dale Bredesen are making progress.

It runs in my family and I certainly would. Hopefully there will be a treatment/preventative before I get a positive result.
