Recommend Treatment For Severe Hallucinations In Elderly
My elderly mother is having hallucinations of unknown cause, and her family practitioner has been unresponsive. We are at a loss on how to procede. We have located a doctor who has a sub specialty in geriatrics, but is not board certified, Does that matter? Please help! She takes several medications and has heart issues. Thanks
