Hello all,
My mom has either LBD or Frontal-temporal dementia. Based on what I have read and researched I am convinced she has LBD. My mom is EXTREMELY delusional and having auditory hallucinations. We have been unable to tease out if she is having visual hallucinations are not--at times she is able to describe her hallucinations but usually she is projecting her delusion onto a real person.
At any rate, antipsychotics have had no effect other than to cause permanent tremor in her jaw. She is also extremely depressed. Her delusions and hallucinations torment her without relief. Exelon and remeron are not helping her. Her psychiatrist is recommending Electroconvulsive Therapy as there are no further medications he would recommend.
Has anyone tried ECT and if you have any help relieving delusions or hallucinations?
Thank you
I did not find the right solution from the internet.
