Hi im thinking of taking my dad to see a private dementia consultant just for check /memory test and advise on tablets hes on
Hes always been under nhs local memory clininc for 7 yrs who ive various problems with accesing tablets he needs to the point of last yr i completed sucide because my father wouldnt sleep was aggressive and restless a big change overnight in a graudual decline of 2018/19
Over the course of 7 yrs my dad was put on dementia tablets donezpril in 2013
Mementine 2018
Then after despairing hundreds of complaints and during lockdown was put on antidepressants 10 mg
And 4 mg melontiin
No sleeping tablets so had to get him over the counter herbal ones but dad becoming resistant .
Fast forwardnow hes okish a lot calmerbut restless and obvious decline
He’s sleeping is erratic too
I was recommend to see a private dr by my dads carer so im thinking of trying that my worry is that they wont be happy in the memory clinic and the gp wont prescribe the tablets the private dr has recommended
Any experience of this ? thanks
