View allI'm really worried about my dad. He's been having a lot of trouble remembering daily stuff, like whether he had tea or took a bath. Lately, he's even started forgetting things from way back, like my grandfather passing away 15 years ago. We saw a neurologist, and they think it might be a form of dementia. My dad's cardiologist prescribed him Somazina Plus. Do you think that's helpful? What should we do next in terms of treatment or care?

I'm really worried because the right side is paralyzed, and we found out there's a clot in the left part of the brain from an MRI. They mentioned there's a blocked artery to the left brain. Could you explain what this means and what steps we should take next? Is there a way to improve the situation, and how serious is this condition?
The MRI shows a clot in the left side of the brain, which is affecting the right side of the body, causing paralysis. Additionally, one of the arteries supplying blood to the left brain is blocked, which could be contributing to the condition.
