Hi
We are still waiting for a diagnosis for my husband. I am lying like crazy to get him to the neurologist's. This doctor has been very helpful. He called me back after I had rung his office to tell him what was going on with my husband, and listened to me and agreed to see him as soon as possible.
I think I'm going to say that the neurologist called me (instead of my husband) by accident, and explained that he would like to run some further tests because my husband's problem with cold feet, which was why he originally had the appointment with the neurologist.
On the one hand, I feel like I would do anything to get an assessment of what is going on. On the other hand, I don't like lying to the man who has been my partner in life for over 25 years.
Just to summarise - my husband is having pretty severe memory and confusion problems, but most recently has been suffering from delusions, mainly that I am not me but another woman who looks just like me. He tried to get me arrested at the US border for impersonating his wife (!)
It does sound like a diagnosis is in order, doesn't it?
Thank you
