Dementia in close-up

Last night was my first real encounter with a person in an Alzheimer meltdown - strictly speaking in the form of LBD, Lewy body dementia, but I'd never heard of that before. A local friend brought her husband over (we live walking distance apart) for me to persuade him she really was his wife and not a dangerous intruder in their house. He's at the stage where he fluctuates between seemingly normal, if a little disconnected, all the way through to angry aggression, and back again. It took 20 minutes or more to convince him to give her back her phone and house keys.

Thing was, and why the blog, she's convinced his worst episodes are shortly after she's given him his sedation meds, twice a day, which are supposed to stop him stressing and fretting constantly. Does anyone here know much about the disease, have you any input? She is on groups and getting support and a few others on her groups have also noticed similar reactions but doctors insist it is not the medication but the nature of the illness. I wondered if anyone here was clued up on the topic.

They've been good friends to me but I had no idea how bad things occasionally are as up to now I've only seen him during his vague-but-friendly stages. Last night tipped once or twice towards scary. So weird that he knew me, and eventually trusted me to be telling the truth, but didn't know his wife of many years. So, another question, and yes we're not supposed to ask questions on blogs but this is more of a conversation - any advice on the best way to react, if (when?) it happens again - uh oh

Can't ask on any other social media as this is my only anonymous outlet.

I got dilated today...

Eye exam. Originally scheduled for last year, pushed back as the doctor decided to take a holiday vacation. No cataracts, no signs of glaucoma. The blurred vision is because my left eye is weaker than the right and my standard glasses need to be changed.
I left the office with disposable sunglasses as blurred vision was at maximum. Good thing the vision center was only a mile from my home. I took the day off from work and it was a good thing as I had a splitting headache and couldn't focus for a few hours.
It was dark 7 hours later when I went grocery shopping and bright lights from car headlights had a slight blue 'edge' when I blinked. I'm thinking that was a reaction from the eye drops.
Hopefully, I'll be back in business tomorrow.

Itchy...

A few months ago my cardiologist recommended I increase my diuretic to resolve leg swelling when I sit at a computer many hours a day. If that doesn't work, I should wear compression stockings. Medium compression of 20-30mmHg was the recommendation.
So, I bought a pair from a store that sells medical supplies. They were fitted to my foot and leg dimensions. I found them uncomfortable and would make my legs itchy if I had them on for more than an hour or two.
So, I ordered some from Amazon that were a size larger and kept them on for at least 6 hours. When I removed them, my legs and ankles were uncontrollably itchy, worse than the previous pair.
I researched reasons for itchy ankles and one symptom was diabetes. Ruling that out as my weekly sugar levels are in the normal range and I'm doing brisk walking 4 to 5 times a week.
I put some Benadril anti-itch medicine on the affected areas but it only worked for an hour or two and an itchy episode came back, it was like flipping a light switch!

How do you cure an itch?

You scratch it... I did and broke the skin. This started a viscous cycle.

Trying to make this go away, I'm using different medicines and alternating between antibiotic, hydrocortisone, and Benadril. My leg swelled so much I went to the doctor. He had me go for an ultrasound to be sure it didn't create a blood clot. Simple test... no clot.
The medical technician thinks I've got an allergy to the material the stockings are made from.

I'm headed to some outside appointments so no 'compression' for now... when I return, I've got a day of drawings to make and I'll consider some support hose. 10-15mmHg and some dry skin cream first.

Dancing away the blues…

I don’t purposely exercise like I used to, but living in a townhouse and tending to Sweetie gives me apt opportunity for daily physical activity, at home. However, I need to do other things to get my daily dose of happy hormones, so I’ve decided to return to an old habit of adding ‘dance’ to my daily activities. Nothing formal though, just me, fun music and fun movements – turn on the radio, find something upbeat and ‘shake what my momma gave me’. LOL!laugh Sweetie probably needs some of that too...

Psychologists say that it’s not only great for the body, but for the mind as well, as it helps people who may be dealing with depression. I believe them. Whenever I’ve had a good dance session, it made me feel better physically and mentally; it puts a smile on my face and good thoughts in my head, every time. thumbs up

Had a frustrating day at work? Having challenges with a relationship? Feeling lonely, sad or depressed? Try dancing your blues away.

Indian health system overwhelmed

Covid has its grip on India . News item on our radio saying that the Indian hospitals are out of oxygen . Victims were two per bed in some places .
With the new variants it will soon become clear if the vaccines will protect victims against all variants , or one for that matter . 2 or 3 of our front line workers have caught covid after being vaccinated , not enough to get a clear picture to see if any worthwhile protection can be gained by vaccination . Thankfully , I'd rather not know than have alot of NZ's infected to prove a point .

No difference between vaccinated and unvaccinated COVID cases

New medical journal shows no difference between vaccinated and unvaccinated COVID cases

Embedded image from another site


Charlotte, NC — In the continuing saga of the COVID vaccine, one new medical journal says that there is no difference between vaccinated and unvaccinated people that are positive with COVID.

The peer-reviewed article, a standard among the medical community, says there “no significant differences were detected in duration of RT-PCR positivity among fully vaccinated participants (median: 13 days) versus those not fully vaccinated (median: 13 days; p=0.50), or in duration of culture positivity (medians: 5 days and 5 days; p=0.29).

There are a couple of key points to draw from this statement. Even if someone has been vaccinated, they are able to become infected with COVID. Even if someone has been vaccinated, there is no difference in how they can spread the virus to others.

The journal article was shared on Twitter by Dr. Jordan Peterson. He said that Americans should read the words of the study regarding COVID and transmissibility.

IT'S NOT A VACCINE.

Inventor of mRNA Vaccine Warns Against the COVID Shot

Dr. Robert Malone invented the mRNA technology, which has been used to create the Pfizer and Moderna COVID vaccines. He has been speaking out about the dangers of the COVID shot, such as the damages the Coronavirus spike protein causes in the body. In this interview with Del Bigtree, Dr. Robert Malone calls for a stop of COVID vaccines. He explains that the COVID vaccine can cause enhanced immune response, which creates a worse reaction when exposed to the natural coronavirus. He says that it can create autoimmunities in the the body. Dr. Robert Malone also said that the spike protein is the most dangerous part of the virus (which is in the COVID vaccine) is similar to spike proteins in our bodies, and can open up (not just pass through) the blood brain barrier. This has very dangerous implications for the human body, and why there have been so many adverse reactions to the COVID vaccine.

Colloidal Silver

I just found out about Colloidal Silver and the health benefits this week and wondered if anyone has anything to add, or if they have tried it and what it may have done for you.wave

I have been studying all kinds of beneficial natural herbs and such for long time now.
I seen someone posted about Pine Needle Tea, and I think its awesome stuff, wished I had known about it years ago, as we here in Canada have plenty! I also make my own Dandelion Root Tea which has been a life changer as well. And to think at one time I used to pull those 'weeds' out of the ground and chuck them!

I live out in the woods now, as I have been impacted from toxic Mold in most rentals I have been in over the years, and it has left me no choice where to live anymore, so being out in the wild has plenty of benefits for someone like megrin And yes I'm fully aware there are molds everywhere, I have studied this extensively. There's a huge difference in just Mold compared to Toxic.
But...I can always learn more about this!

Anyone else into this stuff?

Pandemic Schmandemic--EIS, CDC, WHO... Medico-schmos....the lot....

....At the prestigious Vierk Institute, we of course specialize in the study of severe behavioral syndromes affecting reason and judgment, not to mention understanding, and the inability not to piss up the old kilt, ---such as TD-HD Syndromes. But we have a great infectious disease division as well, responsible for proving, among other things, that wanton unprotected anonymous sex by male homosexuals was the largest initial factor in the rapid spread of HIV-AIDs, as to innocent little Black girls, in sickle cell disease crises, and others, via the fago tainted blood supply. But I digress. Based on our vast experience as medical detectives, while we agree that this recent world problem is of course largely caused by the virus known as Novid 19, there are also strong factors that coincidentally correspond to the recent US presidential primary debates. It seems that so much PANDERing makes many sick, leading to vomiting (EMESIS), especially in those with preexisting conditions. This, we show, lowers the ability of the immune system to fight off these nasty little vuckers. Now that these global health organizations have finally declared that a pandemic exists, as of today, we really think other names apply. We suggest PANDEREMESIS, to better fully reflect the etiology. As with TD-HDS, we are hot on the tails of a cure.
