my mom is a 78 year old diabetic and she has become forgetfull and somehow disoriented at times, I've notice once she takes a pain killer for her back she acts this way, also she somehow forgets to get her insulin and does not eat properly due to a peptic ulcer, could it be possible she is too stres out that she is forgetting stuff or that she is lacking prroper care to take care of her diabetis that her body is making her react in a forgetfull way, similar to alzheimers? she has yet to be diagnose. thank you all.
