I have struggled to get my husbands condition confirmed for many ears due mostly because he refused to see a Dr and the surgery refused to help and talk me unless he came with me However he had an episode of confusion and delusions which resulted in him missing and being returned home by police after concerned member of the public called them. After a visit to the surgery for tegular blood tests he almost collapsed and was sent to hospital. at last, someone medical recognised he has a problem and a memory appointment has been made for the end of this month. I’d hoped we would be able to move on and find some help. This is not to be recently things have deteriorated swiftly after a Ct scan he has been diagnosed with a possible bowl cancer and a colonoscopy procedure is being arranged. He listened to the consultant and nodded a response. As we left he asked me what was going on when I told him he got angry and just said thanks very much . I’m at my wits end how to cope now. He has forgotten already although he does know something is wrong and well attended to hospital but whether he will go thought the procedure when he realise what it involves is anyone’s guess. I am sorry this has rambled on my question is has anyone on her faced a similar problem. Will they opperate if a biopsy finds a cancer and also most importantly will it help him survive longer and recover well with his advance state of confusion ‘ He is almost 82 and I don’t want to lose him or be responsible for coxing him to attend hospital and cause him further problems.
