My mom was a 40 year alchoholic, addicted to percocets, then taken off all cold turkey. She also had a broken neck for a year. She started having sezures and hallucinations. They now have her on zyprexa(highest dose) and epival(highest dose). She was never psycotic before. My nana had died too which set extreme grief for my mom (she soley care for her alone for 20 yrs)I feel because of an accident at the nursing home(windows were not regulated, mom fell out broke her back) they medicate her up.They don't listen when I say you've ripped her off one set and put her on another set of drugs. They say she is bipolar and psycotic just never diagnosed(for 62 yrs?! labeling is dangerous see?!) I want to see if I can find her. Yes she has braindamage but doping her like a zombie will never heal her. She is a very strong person, always has been. Can she mend? Is she being too medicated unnecissarily? Doctors stick together--I do not want a court case--I just want my mother back! Thanks
