I'm very worried. My mom is very confused and can't even complete a sentence. I've just left a msg with her Drs office to page her dr, who is not in his office until 4:00. Hopefully the dr will call me soon.

[LMo]

Whoa -- you SHOULD be worried! Has this happened before? If not, I'd take her to the ER pronto

[vacantangel]

No never happened, although she does lose words, as do I, but not like this.

[nothemama8]

Okay stay calm, it could be stress, just wait for the DR to call and stay with us we'll get through this together

ER, then.

[nightdream]

I would take her to the ER too as soon as possible. If you can of course or call someone who can or an ambulance.

I don't want to get you nervous, just trying to help.

It started last night actually. No improvement today. I just don't know what to think but confusion can be a symptom of many not too pleasant things.

[kimmydawn]

angelgirl, she needs to go to e.r. asap i think. please let us know?

[LMo]

I'm thinking stroke. I say take her to the ER.

Also, my insurance company has a nurse that you can talk to to help assess whether an ER visit is a good idea. Could you try that?

[kimmydawn]

i didn't want to scare, but i'm thinking the same thing...this can be sign of stroke or something else involving the brain. if that's the case, time matters. e.r. please.

[TgrsPurr]

AG, sounds like these people know what they're talking about, take Momma to the ER or call an ambulance to take her there. We're here for you Sweetie. TgrsPurr

Angel, ER, NOW.

[vacantangel]

[TgrsPurr]

Besides, it's better to be safe than sorry.

[TheCheshireCat]

Don't want to pile on the worry, but -- speaking strictly as a layman -- the possibility of a stroke jumps to my mind, too. If it is that -- and I sincerely hope it's not -- then time is a crucial element in heading off any more damage to the brain. I think the ER is where I'd head if it were my own mum. love Cheshire

[vacantangel]

pls dont respond to this thread im going to deal with this all on my own

[marguerite]

not happening AngelGirl, This is a lot to deal with on your own and your feeling isolated to boot. I don't see what you did as a lie but it was your way to say to yourself everything is ok and basically a way to deal with it. Maybe put it on a shelf to deal with later. You need to come talk to us. I know you have many friends on here and Im sure one would talk to you one on one or as a group. Also talk to your T. Im sorry you are going through all of this. Hope you will be ok
