chronic microvascular ischemia
by sallypeters, Apr 15, 2009 01:20PM
I just had a MRI and identified was moderate atrophy with mild changes of chronic microvascular ischemia. Other impressions were No acute intracanial process and chronic bifrontal subdural hygromas.
I am wondering if this is related to my heart. I have had tests that show an irregular heartbeat and sometimes rapid heartbeat.
Is this related to or does this cause dementia?
Is there anything that I can do to minimize the effects from this?
I have a echogram scheduled for my heart. I am 62 years old and otherwise healthy. Take no medications and not overweight. Do not exercise as much as I should.

As for a connection between dementia and heart rhythm, I've never heard/read of any.
