| Itching with dementia
Mom is 89.. Diagnosed vascular dementia 5 yrs ago.... She is taking namenda and the excelon patch. Recently, complains of back itching and begins sobbing. There is no rash or signs of bumps, blisters etc. This is happening more frequently and is taking a toll on her. I have tried lotions, hydro ointment, powders, oatmeal baths, antihistomines but nothing works. Anyone else ever heard of this? She's going for a complete blood workup next week...vitamin deficiency, kidney problems. It seems she is allergic to her own body heat. Help
