Good. 👍 Let me add that sometimes you have to really work at finding the right doctor…(neurologist, geriatric specialist). I was shocked when I ran into caregivers whose parent was not on a thing because the doctor didn’t believe in the meds. WOW!

There’s also the unbeleivable problem of an Alzheimer’s patient having the right to say no to meds. The person has diminished capacity but can say no to Alzheimer’s medication???:banghead: Meanwhile, the caregiver is at his/her wits end. Makes sense?:eek:
