Morning all,
Mum had uti infection cleared up she is contact shouting tried everything I can think of from throwing her a ball to taking her out for a drive, nothing works spoke to mental health which my mum is under they upped anti phycotic meds been a week now. Mum needs night care had no cover over the last weekend mum was fine with me only getting up once or twice for drink and pad change. Carer been back for two nights now and she is just constant shouting with very little rest during the day. Mental health seems to think it's something called pyhcomotor agaition anyone else had experience of this, if so how long did it last for and how was it managed. I'm feeling tired frustrated, trying to contact mental helath yesterday, feel im being ignored not able to rest during the day plus I'm a carer for my sister too. Who also has ants in pants. Unfortunately respite isn't an option as mum has other complications that would make it so hard for her, plus when she's pyshotic it's vital that she's somewhere is knows. Also is anyone had any problems with carers not being able to crush prn meds as I've also looked into this and it would help a great deal but been told that they can't spoke to them all about this and they aren't confident enough to know when even when I've explained countless times. Anyone else having these issues if so please share.
Thanks for taking the time to read my rant
