Hi eveyone im new to Talking Point my mum has been diagnosed about 3yrs but the last 6 months she has been hallucaiting she see's and hears people kids mostly. Mum has more problems than just alzheimers as she is blind aswell. We know its maybe got to do with her sight loss that she is seeing people as this can happen. But i feel if she was lucid and knew what was happening she would understand they are not real. I have noticed this past week that they annoy her more as i found her very upset yesterday crying she wants to sell the house. I dont want her getting to the point where she dosnt feel comfortable in her own home. She is also getting more annoyed easier snapping at grandkids etc when we all know that is not my mums personality to do that.The doctor has put her on risperidone but a very mild dose but im not happy with her taking them every night as i have looked at the side effects.
Any advice would be appreciated.
