in I Am a Caregiver (General Topics)

Mom has Mixed dem. and at last neuro visit still deemed mid stage.  Is sleeping more, and seems if we press her about something (I.e. for what ever reason we have to urge her to do something she doesn’t want to) she has a bout of diarrhea (from stress?).

Then my guilt kicks in like I already don’t enough problems with that!  

I’m working on getting a caregiver to relieve my dh that helps me on this journey.  

I’m not really looking for any answers, just venting.

Thank you to anyone who read it.

    Yes--could be from the stress.  Similar to my mom, & I think the Aricept doesn't help either--seems to cause lots of stomach rumblings.
