How Did It Get to the Point Where You Were Worried?
David became unsteady n it was getting very difficult to walk properly. He had a condition called normal pressure hydrocaplis which affects elderly people. It is characterized by a build up of brain fluid in the centre of the brain. As you get older, the brain's ability to deal with this fluid becomes impaired. And when the fluid builds up, it can affect how the brain functions and performs. This leads to neurological symptoms that, fortunately, can be reversed by treatment.
