parent care

[Guest guest]

I sure understand how  hard this is.  My MIL lived her last 5 years in our home, from

92 to 97 and she was completely mentally irrational and had to be kept in her

wheelchair and have constant care. 

She passed this last June.  It is

also difficult if you are the Oreo generation with elderly, ill parents and 

kids at home…you guessed it, you are the sweet crème filling that gets

used up fast.  Yes, there are lots

of things that cause tremors.  Love

to you both.

a year is a short time med wise and IF it IS what is causing her

tremors, taking her off of them should relieve that,, but she might have other

problems after stopping as well,, as a rise in her depression and that is not

good either..

I feel for ya hon cuz I am taking care of both of my parents who are

divorced from each other, my mom is crazy and my father is in a nursing home

again with end stage renal disease, heart disease and copd... I spend ALL my time taking care of them...

I just visited mother and

she is on Lexapro and other meds for

rejection (she had transplant)

Well I don't even recognize her she has bad tremors she doesnt

understand what we say, forgetful and will fall asleep at any given

notice.

I read through her meds and one of the pain med she is on

causes tremors etc but also does Lexapro, and the dr havent

picked up on it? Now she has a visiting nurse so she has an advocate.

And at her next dr app. I want her

off those meds though i dont know if

that will reverse the damage. She

been on them for a year and she never

told us.

Shes totally disabled now and now i have to run around to try to get

her affairs in order and i dont know what i will do if they dont give

her a home attendent bc me and my sis HAVE TO WORK.

So pray for us and tell ur

husband to look into herbal remedies, I also

used regular Vitamin B 100mg for a couple of years and i felt the cloud

lift. Drs never told me to take it

(listened to garynull.com) they just

brushed off my symptoms just like they are doing with my mom.

We have to be real cautious when taking any meds and not doing our own

homework.
