The Dr. said that my mom has lack of Oxygen to the brain. He said she's at an 87% when they want everyone to be over 90% & that it drops even lower @ night. He said this could cause her to act confused & stumble. He doesn't want to give her an Oxygen tank @ home, because she smokes & he said it's 2 dangerous. Other tests have been ran, there's nothing else major wrong w/her health. But here lately, she's been acting very strange. Falling out of bed @ night. I've found her in the floor, talking to herself, in the middle of the night a few times this week. She took the vent grate out of the floor, one night had her clothes off. Asking strange questions. Could lack of oxygen cause this or is it possible she may have started sleep walking all of a sudden? She has also stopped wanting to bathe or even change clothes. She wears the same thing everyday. She's already on medication for dementia. I was hoping someone could help give some possibilities 4 this behavior b4 I take her bk 2 the Dr.
