Vascular dementia experiences: Pulmo Sleep Center Elixir✓

Vascular dementia is one of the most common types of dementia, occurring due to damage to the blood vessels in the brain. This damage can result from a stroke, injury, or other conditions that disrupt blood flow to the brain. As a result, the brain does not receive enough oxygen and nutrients, which can lead to problems with memory, concentration, and decision-making abilities. Vascular dementia often develops gradually, and symptoms can vary depending on which part of the brain is affected.

Due to the specific and complex nature of vascular dementia, it is crucial to have a specialist who understands how the disease manifests and how best to treat it. In this article, we share real-life experiences from our patients who have faced vascular dementia and explain how a professional neurologist like Dr. Zorica Stević can help with accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.

Patient Experiences with Vascular Dementia

Although vascular dementia is a progressive disease, many patients report that the initial stage is the most difficult. The first changes may be subtle and often mistaken for normal signs of aging—forgetfulness, trouble concentrating, and reduced decision-making abilities. However, as the disease progresses, symptoms become more pronounced and can significantly affect daily life.

It is extremely important that patients receive timely diagnosis and therapy in order to slow the progression of the disease and improve their quality of life. With proper treatment, many patients are able to live a normal life or at least maintain a high level of independence.

Here are some real-life experiences from patients who sought help at Pulmo Sleep Center Eliksir for vascular dementia and related conditions:

Milan, 42 years old

"When I came to Pulmo Sleep Center Eliksir, I was completely exhausted and unsure what to do because of my sleep problems. My headaches were getting worse, and I didn’t know where to turn. The team at Eliksir not only diagnosed my condition but also helped me return to a normal life through a careful and considerate approach. I sleep better now, the headaches are gone, and my daily life is back in balance. Thank you for everything!"

Jana, 56 years old

"I’m afraid that without the help of Pulmo Sleep Center Eliksir, I would still be unaware of how serious my condition was. Because of sleep apnea, I wasn’t sleeping more than 3–4 hours a night and was feeling completely drained. After being evaluated and starting therapy, my life began to change. I now sleep peacefully and wake up refreshed. My symptoms have completely disappeared. The team was amazing—everyone showed genuine care and professionalism."

Stevan, 61 years old

"I had been dealing with memory and concentration issues for a while but didn’t know who to turn to. At Pulmo Sleep Center Eliksir, they gave me full attention, conducted all the necessary tests, and diagnosed me with vascular dementia. Dr. Zorica Stević was extremely professional and empathetic throughout the entire treatment process. The therapy I began has significantly improved my condition. Not only is my memory better now, but I’m also able to lead a normal life again. The Eliksir team truly helped me maintain my independence."

Milica, 68 years old

"As someone who, in recent years, lost the ability to cope with daily stress and anxiety, I was desperate. I felt like nothing was helping me. At Pulmo Sleep Center Eliksir, not only did they address my neurological problems, but they also provided the emotional support I needed. The therapies were precise, and the staff was extremely attentive and patient. I can now function without fear, and my quality of life has drastically improved."
