My grandmas Alzheimer's Disease?


My grandma has had Alzheimer's Disease for 6 years now, she cant really do anything on her own anymore

Anyway, lately she's been getting really tired, starts shaking uncontrollably, crying, her face turns red, and she sleeps all day. She always complains that all a sudden she gets really weak and tired.

Is this associated with her disease?

Sorry to hear of your grandma's illness, my grandad also has Alzheimer's at the 6 years mark. As the illness progresses (at least in the case of my grandad) their emotions get more out of control and they find it hard to relax or stay calm. My grandad also has uncontrollable shakes. He was diagnosed with Parkinson's about a year ago (very common in old people). I think the shakes frustrates him more so as he doesn't remember he has Parkinson's, it's like he suddenly realizes he's shaking 3-4 times a day. Alzheimer's is awful I hope things get easier for your grandma.
