Its taken a while but finally got mum to agree to see the memory clinic, if they visited at home. They contacted me and asked for background information and from that, they decided that there were some mental health issues aswell (not a surprise). The social worker arranged a visit along with the psychiatrist. Long story short, the initial diagnosis is psychosis, anxiety and some dementia, memory score was poor.
The psychiatrist wants to prescribe anti psychotic drugs and a head scan but backtracked on the scan due to mums anxiety going through the roof. Once they left, I was very quickly shown the door and she wants her house keys back. I'm now seen as the bad guy for telling tales about her. She thinks her memory isnt too bad.
She cannot manage her finances and doesn't eat well.
Will get on to the social worker and let them know but at the moment, things seem worse than ever.
