REUTERS/Mary F. Calvert Acquire Licensing RightsWASHINGTON, Sept 18 (Reuters) - U.S. Representative Jennifer Wexton, a Virginia Democrat, on Monday said she would not seek reelection after doctors updated her diagnosis to a more serious condition, which she likened to "Parkinson’s (disease) on steroids." PSP is a neurological disorder that affects body movements, causing problems with walking, eye movement, and swallowing and worsens over time. The rare condition is characterized by symptoms that are similar to Parkinson's but more difficult to treat. Wexton flipped a seat held by Republicans for decades in 2018 as voters veered away from then-President Donald Trump.

  + stars: | 2023-05-01 | by ( Sandee Lamotte | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +6 min
About 40% of the survivors of stroke have mild cognitive impairment that does not meet the diagnostic criteria for dementia. Cognitive impairment is most common within the first two weeks after a stroke, the statement said. The American Stroke Association’s statement did offer some good news: About 20% of people who experience mild cognitive impairment after a stroke fully recover their cognitive function, typically within the first six months. Stroke risk factors, such as hypertension, high cholesterol and type 2 diabetes, should be treated, as should atrial fibrillation. “Perhaps the most pressing need, however, is the development of effective and culturally relevant treatments for post-stroke cognitive impairment,” she said.
