Hi OH started with a chest infection two weeks ago. Treated in hospital with antibiotics overnight then strong antibiotics at home for a week. I can’t believe the decline with his dementia during this time. A few days in with the infection he suffered for the first time with delirium. This came and went over a couple of days but now he is absolutely not like his pre infection self. Prior he could make a brew, shower and dress himself, switch on the TV and use the loo. Now he can do none of these things. He can’t recognise any of the rooms in the house and doesn’t really know where he is. He is falling asleep all the time, and not eating/ drinking much. I told the Doctor all this last week and the reply was that when the infection cleared the delirium usually clears. He finished the antibiotics last Sunday and isn’t coughing any more. Has anyone else any experience of this after an infection. He’s had infections before and never been like this
