My mom has been sleeping the whole day. She is never like this. I am starting to!


Question: My mom has been sleeping the whole day!. She is never like this!. I am starting to get worried!!?!!?!!?
I am very worried!. Because she has had so many problems (like a heart attack in August) recently!. She will wake up for a few seconds and talk a little bit but then doze off!. My mom is very skinny and she took an oxycodone and an ibuprofen this morning!. Could she just be a little over-medicated!? She went to dialysis this morning and the doctor asked why she was so konked out and I told her about the oxcodone!. She said "Well since she is so small, one pill could be a little much for her!." Is this the reason why she has slept the WHOLE DAY!? Just about an hour ago she has started mumbling things that don't make any sense!. Please help me!. I am very worried!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

probably, but she could be taking other stuff when you aren't there

talk to your doctor about this, and tell him/her you are worried

maybe the can draw blood, or get her some counsiling/phycologist to help her incase she is taking drugs, alcohal, or just an overdose of medication

hope this helps

She's essentially high!. Don't give her the meds tomorrow and see what that does!. Check on her every hour or so and wake her up and ask her if she's ok!. The mumbling is probably just sleep-talking stuff!. If it continues, see a doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Maybe try phoning an overdose/poison control hotline!. Try the front of your phone book!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

talk to her ask her if shes ok or write a note Www@Answer-Health@Com

It's possible that her body is shutting itself off for a few hours to re-boot, but it's more likely that she's way over-medicated!. You should make sure she stays hydrated, wake her up if you have to!. Call your doctor or a friend (an ADULT friend, mind you, and a responsible one) if you get too worried, though it would be a good idea to tell the doctor this anyway!. If anything happens--she throws up, she stops breathing, she falls unconscious, etc--CALL 911!. Even if you don't require an ambulance, they have people on staff ready to answer your questions!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Is their someone else there that can help you such as a aunt or uncle or father!. Make sure she doesn't have any more medicines!. If she is that out of it she might wake up and think she needs to take more medicine and take another one!. If you are still worried call your moms doctor and even if it is after hours!. If it is and emergency they will have the doctor call you back!. Make sure to tell the doctor that you are very worried and why!. I hope things are ok with her!. Call someone to help you out ok you shouldn't be going through this alone!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
