Father In Hospital , not Acting Right , addicted to fentanyl Posted: 08-08-07 02:46am
My father is addicted to fentanyl. friday
he was rushed to the emergency room for
overdosing. Hes still in the hospital.. he
was sick but was talking normal and acting
like himself saturday and sunday...now
since monday hes not himself...he barely
talks..its like hes a toddler. he speaks
slower, he repeats words like saying hi 4
times in a row..he doesnt even pay
attention when we talk most the time. its
like hes in another world. Ive tried
talking to the doctors...they think hes
normal because he can tell people what day
it is and say his name...hes not
normal....he doesnt talk like a 55 year
old man like he used to..now its more like
a 4 year old..its really scaring me..does
anybody have a clue on what could be
wrong?
Also ive been told they're giving him
psychiatric drugs...could that be
something thats making him act like this?
