whether its in the middle of the night or during day she is constantly pacing with her walker. I have googled it and it says its part of sundowners but its at any time of the day. my caregiver coungselor is researching for me to she thought there was something to help this. I can't keep my mom down long whether in a chair or in bed.
Does she seem to have anxiety? That can cause pacing...to work it off. Sitting still can become difficult. Perhaps some anxiety medication? Have you spoken with her doctor? I'm betting it's a trial and error kind of thing.
I hope you find the solution. Mom didn't pace, but she would get out of bed, so I equate it to that. I could hardly rest afraid she would fall.
My late husband paced constantly. Couldn't sit still. He was on heavy pain medication. That's why I asked about the narcotics.
