Hi @mjkrr2, thank you for sharing you story. the doctors here have suggested Megace, but my mother, right now is so set against taking it. I hope we will be able to change her mind but we'll see. THank you for letting me know your experience and what worked for you.

Has anyone out there taken Megace? (I'm not sure I'm spelling it correctly) how did you do on it? any side affects? I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has taken it.
thank you

@kj9- I had a similar problem with my mom but about giving up driving. We finally had to take her in hand and go to the doctor who phrased things in a way that hit home. She didn't have to give up her license but she couldn't drive anymore because she didn't ever want to kill anyone. I truly believe at times like this it's important to have her talk to someone she trusts and who will listen other than family. Sometimes with mothers and daughters it can get sticky! What do you think?
