Suggest Treatment For Severe Anxiety In An Elderly Person
I think yes
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.
I read your query and understand your concerns.
From the available description there is good possibility that your mother suffers with delirium which is a condition characterised by sleep disturbance, perceptual disturbance (often visual hallucinations), inattention and fearfulness and change in mental status.
The points in favour include sudden onset,
Severe paranoia,
Sleep disturbance,
Speech impediment,
and most importantly old age and withdrawal of medications.
Although the cause for delirium on this day could be drug withdrawal but the possibility of other problems at the same time can not be ruled out and visiting emergency is recommended.
I hope this answers you.
Feel free to write back to me if you have more questions.
Thanks and regards.
