What Causes Sudden Confusion And Severe Fatigue?
Hi,we called my mother-in-law (86) this morning on the phone and she sounded as if she was drunk. We immediately went to her house and she was very confused and tried to tell my husband Happy birthday, but could only say Hap, Hap, and then stop and look. She had her cereal on the counter and we suggested that she sit and eat , her reponse was I don't know what to do. She has a pace maker, could this be slowing down or could she have had a mini stroke? She seemed somewhat better this afternoon.
I'm sorry, I thought this was free...I'll seek other help.
