My mum was diagnosed late last year. She was in denial and hasn't mentioned it since. Almost immediately she said she had flu although no signs of cough/cold and started to go to bed during the day. After about six weeks of this I took her to the Drs who did some blood tests. On 4 Jan they said she was lacking in vit D and she needed her thyroxine medication increasing. She's been taking her Meds but says she is still very tired and keeps going to bed all the time, but says she's not sleeping at night as her mind is working overtime remembering days gone by. My problem is whether to try to insist on her staying up and trying to get her to go out or is it better for her to rest. Mum is 84. I would be so grateful for any advice x
