I FOUND MY SPOUSE TAKEN MEDICATION FOR DEMENTIA HE WAS WORSE. MORE AGITATED. HE ALREADY HAS ANGER ISSUES AND WORSE NOW. GOING FOR THEREAPY WONT HELP. HE FORGETS WITHIN MINUTES WHAT YOU TALKED ABOUT. AND REPEATS OVER AND OVER ON ANYTHING HE ASKED ABOUT

IT'S VERY DRAINING. DOCTORS HERE IN MY TOWN ARE NOT GOOD. I LIVE NC GOING TO DUKE WAS BETTER, BUT STILLL HARD TO GET A DOCTOR THAT IS GOOD AT IT. ITS HARD TO TRAVEL TO BOSTON ITS ABOUT 1 HR DRIVE. PRIMARY CARE DOCTORS ARE NOT GOOD, YOU SEE SOMEONE DIFFERENT FOR APPT. NOBODY IS NOT ON THE SAME PAGE. SORRY TO SAY ITS JUST NOT GOOD.

@gloriajeanbuddy Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I’m sure you will find some support and encouragement in these discussions. You are certainly in a difficult situation. Do you live in a small town outside Boston? Many years ago, we lived in Arlington and I really know what driving into Boston is like. Does your town or city have an Area Agency on Aging? Or maybe senior services? They should be able to offer lots of suggestions on how best to handle your situation. Or help you find a support group just for you.
So far, what’s a good tip you’ve found in this discussion? Something that’s worth trying?
