My mom woke me at 5:00am yesterday asking for her blood pressure meds. I told her it was really too early as we usually give them to her around 9:00 am. But she said she was having a panic attack. If she has had that happen before, she has never told me. I know she very often has high anxiety and I attribute it to simply having ALS as well as FTD.
She said she thought it may be a result of taking too much allergy medicine the day before. She often takes Wal-phed 5-hour twice a day but the day before she asked for it three times.
Have any caretakers experienced their PALS starting to have high anxiety and panic attacks and if so....any ideas as to what to do?
