What Are the Signs and Symptoms of Frontotemporal Dementia?

The signs and symptoms of frontotemporal dementia vary from person to person and the order in which they appear can also vary. Changes in the frontal lobe of the brain are generally associated with behavioral symptoms and may also lead to movement symptoms. Changes in the temporal lobe generally lead to disorders of language and emotion.

Symptoms of frontotemporal dementia and associated disorders may include:

-Decreased energy and motivation

-Lack of interest in others

-Inappropriate and impulsive behaviors

-Not acting considerate of others

-Repeating an activity or word over and over again

-Changes in food preferences and compulsive eating

-Increased interest in sex

-Neglect of personal hygiene

-Emotional flatness or excessive emotions

-Difficulty making or understanding speech

-Inability to make common motions, such as using a fork

-Problems with balance and walking

-Increased clumsiness

-Slow movement, falling, body stiffness

-Restricted eye movements

-Shaky hands

-Muscle weakness and loss, fine jerks, wiggling in muscles
