[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Exhausted from last night and haven't had a chance to read all replies yet but wanted to share that we learned mom was prescribed a med by the ER doctor after her second fall. Not blaming the sibling who was informed but that sib believed the med was for anxiety. Turns out it was a pain med, narcotic category that has side effects such as increased anxiety, restlessness and frequency of urination/urge to urinate. All things mom was experiencing. She can't be her own patient advocate any longer so we need to be and to pay more attention to meds and research them. Trying it with her off of the Tramadol. More later and thanks again for all of your input. Siblings and I were not prepared and we feel bad about everything. We'll do better.[/quote]
