@Woohoo what a shame all that effort for it to be shut. I do hope you manage again and its open next time X
@Pete1 hopefully we'll hear from someone today X
@Help! Sounds a real dilemma with the tablets for you, i hope the new ones have a positive effect. X I'm thinking when memory nurse gets in touch they will review mums medication. She's on galantamine at mo. I didnt see any inprovement apart from in first couple of week she seemed a bit more motivated. She did some housework a couple of times and started knitting again, only a simple scarf, but when she went wrong she carried on whereas she would have given up and pulled it out before. I don't think its made her any less confused or agitated or upset in fact her confusion is worse with her mixing me up so much and so her agitation and upset seems more too. Before she used to get upset and agitated at me mainly over being bored and about housework (her not doing housework and me trying to) but now we have it over who I am and where I am when I'm not me etc as well as odd bouts still about boredom and housework.
I was hoping the memory team could give her something else or swap her tablets to help her feel calmer and not as frequently confused but I don't know if theres anything that can do that and reading all the side effects people are having on the drugs is very worrying isn't it.
Good luck with your dads new medication x
