The hospice nurse came today. After hearing what has been going on with Mom, she called the ALS doctor and talked to him. He says that he has experienced quite a few patients complaining about the feeling hot issue. He says that it is nerve confusion and that Neurontin tends to be the treatment of choice. Hope that it takes care of this issue because it has become an everyday thing. They want her to have catherer but, Mom is still totally refusing that...lol
She is now requesting to be propped on 2 pillows but, she doesn't have major signs of hypercania. I suspect that her breathing muscles are beginning to weaken to some degree. She has been totally against bipap so, we will just have to deal with what comes.
Hope everyone is having a decent day today.
