Thanks for your comments. the only drugs she has been on have been long term with no changes is dosage. I'm guessing it's another step in her progression.
Her mother has Alzheimers and lived with us for 18 years, so even though I know what to expect, I'm still scared & sad to see where my partner of over 55 years is heading.

I understand. Every patient is different (with a lot of overlap). It was the suddenness of her change that made me think there could be another cause (I'm a retired physician). But it certainly could be just natural progression. Unless it resolves quickly, it is usually worth checking with her physician. It isn't my intent to offer medical advice as I've been retired a long time and I'm now a caregiver with a medical background.
