By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.
V. Complaints. Please contact our Family Feedback Line at (866) 584-7340 or
[email protected] to report any complaint. Consumers have many avenues to address a dispute with any referral service company, including the right to file a complaint with the Attorney General's office at: Consumer Protection Division, 800 5th Avenue, Ste. 2000, Seattle, 98104 or 800-551-4636.

My mother had good luck w Wellbutrin after being unable to tolerate most other meds in general. Maybe mom's PCP can work with you to try some different meds to help her?
Also, spinal stenosis can cause weak muscles and neurological issues in the hands, feet and legs when nerves are compressed. The numbness or what mom called dead feet caused her such issues for decades.
If she has good bloodwork numbers, mom may not be at the end of her life stage right now. My mom lived with severe neuropathy in her feet and legs, and CHF till she was 95. Wheelchair bound and DEFINITELY full of angst over the dementia, neuropathy pain and the rest of it. If you think your mom is approaching eol, look into a hospice evaluation. They do a good job keeping the elders comfy.
Best of luck to you.
Also, is she administering the Xanax to herself? If so, it is not out of the realm of possibility that she isn't taking it properly... maybe forgetting and taking too much?
Can you elaborate about what kind of neuor problems she's having? At 86, she certainly could start to have memory issues and the beginnings of cognitive decline. I would make sure a reliable person is giving her the meds to see if this relieves the trance symptom. If you are going by asking her, I wouldn't rely on this... have someone else give her the meds if this isn't already happening. At her age she won't recoup as quickly, and may not come back to her pre-incident level of abilities. You both will need patience and tempered expectations. I hope you find the source of her problem and can figure out a solution!
