My Mum has a memory problem which is worsening daily. She has had blood tests and two tests from the Memory Nurse and is awaiting her CT scan. She remains living independently with help from myself and my brothers with shopping, outings, appointments etc but quite recently she has been phoning us up to 15 times a day regardless of whether we are at work which is attention seeking because at the time of the call it seems urgent whereas 15 mins later everything is fine. She cannot remember that she has already called you and therefore calls you again within 2 minutes leaving exactly the same message. Demanding a visit from the Doctor is now a key theme of her calls. She has sensitive skin and has been prescribed a steroid cream for itching on her wrists but she claims her neck is now irritating her as well - we have of course taken her to the Doctor recently. I believe the itchiness worsens when she becomes anxious about things and I have mentioned this to the memory nurse and GP but no one is confirming or denying that this might be connected to her memory problem. Has anyone else experienced this?
