Hi,
My wife has had PD now for over 12 years. She started having "visions with insight" years ago but now she is having "psychotic" hallucinations where she sees woman around me, a "thing" that intends to harm her and an electric or magnetic floor that controls her and the dog. She can become very angry at me to the point where she hits me or throws furniture around. I am not sure if she has Parkinson's dementia or dementia caused by the drugs she takes. Her neurologist seems to only tweak her meds. Wife is on about 800mg of stalevo a day with a 25/100 ER at bedtime. Neuro has tried to get her to take seriquell (for psychosis) at bed time but if she takes the full 25mg she is helpless and sometimes wets her bed. She has also stopped using a 4mg Neupro patch over the past 10 days but with no good effect. Stalevo can cause psychosis but sinemet may be almost as bad. Caring for my wife is becoming very difficult now. We are having a home health aide start this week but the aide may not workout. Has anyone seen psychological improvement after going back to sinemet after a few years on stalevo? I feel the only treatment that could "save" my wife is a cell transplant of some sort but time is quickly running out for her. If anyone has any ideas that would help make her demons go away, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, John |
