Is Over Excitement And Repeated Speech At The Age Of 70 A Cause For Concern?
My sister is 70 years old and lives in another state (FL). She called me tonight and was very excited to tell me that she retired, finally! She said she didn t sleep at all last night and was very tired, but kept talking for 90 minutes! She repeated herself over and over again about the same subject. She was talking very rapidly and some of the things didn t make sense. I m a little worried about her. She said she feels very good physically because she has been going to physical therapy for her knee and doing exercises for about 4 weeks now. She told me over and over she s invincible! Should I be concerned?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, as long as the question of sleep is concern this could be due to some anxiety, and knee problem could be due to arthritis and for this it is better to see the orthopaedic surgeon may needs some tests, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
