Hi Dingg,I’m really sorry to hear this.Ukiboys suggestion of a urine infection is definitely worth checking for.My late mum became paranoid and aggressive once due to delirium from a urinary infection.It was a shock she went to hit me which was totally out of character.I think the staff should be checking for any undiagnosed infection.Take care love Jane xx

Hello Dingg 

I am so sorry to read this. As far as I am aware there can be many reasons for the change in his attitude. As Ukiboy said a UTI. It can also be caused by dehydration, lack of oxygen to the brain, pain, medication clashes or even him realising he has no control of what is going on.

His team are correct in keeping you away for a while whilst they assess just what the cause has been. You don't want to see him in this condition.

We had this with the father in law and with the wife being a nurse we had an insight into the causes but didn't know at the time.

Trust his team to get to the bottom of it and take some time out yourself -try and relax and have some quality time - we are all with you both on this journey.

Kind regards - Brian.

Wonderful advice Brian.

Thanks ukibouy liked that dingy and thanks Jane,

He's had CT scan and they are running tests so hope they make sense of it.

Its the pulled feeding tube thats scary, because the cancer closed his throat it was like gold dust getting that in they could barely do it, weeks of trying. He has a picc line so he has vein feeding as a route, but its a shocker all this

My mum had got delusional when l was caring for her and she could be violent but this was a mighty big episode apparently.  They had difficulty protecting him they said as he was lashing out and its disappointing they couldn't stop him getting his own tube out. But it must have been a shocking episode.

My main career was working with challenging mental health situations with young people and l was trained to deal with situations to prevent self harm but I'm still shocked at how violent and out of control this episode has been related as.. no words really

Even with all your experience, it's different when it's someone you love. I'm not surprised that was your career. I sensed that you were a very empathetic lady. Hold tight Dining, We're all with you and rooting for OH. Much love to you beautiful lady.

Thanks Brian and Jane replied to your kind message in words to uki as message underneath always vanishes after l reply to the top one! xx

I just wonder, he was very ill a few days ago he also has aortic stenosis and many other issues, l think oxygen deprivation is bothering me he was pumped with adrenaline as his pulse and blood pressure were very low. 

Yes they are digging into this l know but didn't expect this Brian.

Oh Dingg that must have been so awful for you what a horrible thing to happen. My Mum also had a violent episode because of a urine infection and she ended up in hospital for a few days. Let’s hope they find the cause of it today and he calms down. Sending lots of love and hugs

So sorry to read this, Dingg. What a scary time for you both.

I hope you get some answers today and things are calmer.
