John is a 74-year-old white man who presents to his primary care physician at the urging of his wife who is worried about him. He has lost interest in things he enjoyed, including his twice weekly pickleball game and monthly poker game. He has gotten lost twice driving; forgotten important appointments; and, at a family dinner recently, didn’t seem to recognize his daughter-in-law. He has also physically slowed down recently. He has hypertension controlled with medication; COPD managed with salbutamol; and received treatment for prostate cancer 5 years ago. All of the following should be part of your differential diagnosis EXCEPT:
Depression
Cognitive impairment
Prostate cancer recurrence
Parkinson’s disease
Neurocognitive testing and an MRI suggest John has mild dementia. What do you do next?
Refer to a dementia specialist
Begin John on symptomatic medication such as a cholinesterase inhibitor
Recommend John return to pickleball and other activities to maintain physical and mental health
All of the above
