Have Ulcer Poss High Blood Pressure. Suffer Temperature, Memory Loss And Shaking. Cause?

Question: why high temp and shaking and memory loss to my mother of 79 yrs
Brief Answer:
Delirium and dementia
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
The details are too small to give a perfect opinion, but looking at the broader pictiure I think your mother has sepsis or stroke. That is why suffering with high temperature and chills. I need to investigate it in a hospital setting thoroughly with blood counts, culture, CT scan of the head.
I opine it to be delirium is precipitated by the this sepsis. If I have a patient like that at home I would rush to emergency.
Let me know if you have further concerns.
