Folks, this is getting worse by the day, Janet just cries and shakes and i took her to the a Doctor today, and they said she needs to see a Psychiatrist. Right now she is laying on my bed in my back bedroom, and she looks like she is losing touch with reality...This isn't about me, please, i'm okay!!!
I have gotten a holf of her family, they try to talk to her and she only cries, then she passes out and gets dizzy, i walked in there 5 minutesago and asked her, please what is bothering you, all she chooses is solitude, it isn't about her ex that is hurting her, it isn't me, actually when i am around her, she does slightly better, i'm running constantly checking on her and the works.
She has friend she has known for years, and they notice when i am gone from the house, she starts stuttering and panicks and breaths real hard, and i come home, she cries on my shoulder, and says please don't leave me alone. They tested her for drugs or alcohol as a standard thing today, and they told me, a very good county MD, they said this woman has a major chemical imbalance and is falling apart
Y'all what is going on????????? Its not me, i want to help this poor woman!! She is only 39...Earl
PS Her blood pressure is now 140, she is stuttering and is so so sad, i help when im around, at the MD earlier they said for me to come pick her up because she was getting real red in the face, and 80 on the lowside when it normally should be 110 over on the high side, please folks, this is not about me,

I agree she needs to see a Psych. If she has a chemical imbalance then she needs to get on some meds. It sounds like she is depressed and having panic attacks. Get her to a good Dr. Earl. If the first one doesn't help, just keep trying new ones. Sometimes it takes a few to get to the bottom of things.
Hang in there and be there for her. Hold her Earl, don't keep asking her what is wrong, if it is depression, she likely doesn't have any idea why she is crying, and asking her just makes it worse.

Okay, very smart, yes, okay i will not ask her again what is wrong. Whatever is wrong, they told me some details today, they said something about when she was a child, is coming out of her. And she acts as though someone has done something to her, even her job last month, said to me, yes they called me, and said she was scaring all of us Earl, because she was talking to herself. She fell asleep about one minute ago, but only after i put her on a sofa i have in my PC room which is my first bedroom, her blood pressure is down to 130 on the high. I talked to a woman that knew her long before i met her, and said she once had a complete nervous breakdown, and this was as a very young woman around 15 years ago. What i am feeling, is something happened during her life, that she couldnt handle, and maybe it's coming out. Her estrogen level is good, found that out earlier today, i told them, check her to see if she was raped, nope it isn't that..All i can do at this point is monitor her,
But This I Know For Fact, this person is at the stage she may forget who she is!!!!!!!! This is Real! I would not play a sick game like this, i rarely make topics!! And i am not over reacting, oh my my my my!!!!...Main thing is i need to stay calm, oh my gosh, i wish my daughter was here that is 29, to help me with this, but she is in Fort Worth visiting a old school girlfriend
Oh wow, i just fixed a bunch of my typos, she is calmer her forehead warm, i put a damp wash cloth on her forhead, and she moaned a little, and said luv you, in a mumble and kind of yawned, oh man..They did give her some medication today, i checked them all and read the information on them and they are non narcotic,,,

Earl, it sounds like you need to take her to the ER. They can check her into a psych unit and check her out.

As everyone says... she needs to be prescribed some medications... she cannot help herself at this current stage... It has to be rode out... once she been given the proper medications... she also seems dependent upon you... just be there for her and console her.... till the medicine can take effect... if medicine is not working, you need to get her to and checked in for professional help. She may be very reluctant when and if you have to do that.... Make sure she has no means of hurting herself too... I cannot advice any more than what everyone else has said.... this needs professional advice.

BandtMom, i hear you!!! I will choose ER if this does not calm down, WhiteThunder you are correct, let's see she took these medications as prescribed 2 hours ago, her blood pressure is now 125 on the high side, but she has a slight fever, and she woke for a small period, so i said Janet, It's me Earl, she okay, stay here, and said yes ill stay here. I found that me being calmer is calmer her. Im treating her as though nothing is wrong, and smile, and this seems to help big time. Her pulse is a tad to high, but not dangerous, i checked it by feeling the vein on the right side of her neck, and she sniffles a little bit, sort of like sinusitus, but not bad. Okay i just kissed her on the check, she smiled and nodded, I won't let her harm herself, she's right behind me, i know how to later lean back but sleep light as to wake quick, im just that way..Poor poor thing

Earl, she needs to be taken to the nearest large, metropolitan hospital and admitted for thorough testing.
Anxiety and/or full-blown panic attacks aren't good. Neither is the resulting spiking of her BP.
She may well have a chemical brain imbalance or even some other physical problem that needs meds and all the holding and washcloths on the forehead won't fix this.
Unless she truly calms down completely and sleeps through the night, I'd not waste any more time. If she awakens and is still distraught, get her to the ER.
Please. It's the kindest thing you can do for her.

Sci, you are correct, iof she wakens and acts strange one more time, i will call the ER ambulance, they are very very fast here where i live in Houston. She is normal now, but yes, i am going to have to get to the root of this if she wakes up by getting her to ER
Let's see it's now about 20 minutes later, she is sleeping like a little baby, but true true true, this gal is going to be checked into the Hsopital tomorrow, after she gets some rest. I think many test need to be done, and IV for pottasium and antibiotic , she is holding her food i fed her earlier, and i gave her room temp water to drink

Hopefully she'll simply fall into a deep rest and sleep through the night now, Earl.
But DO get her to the hospital tomorrow. Insist that her doctor admit her for a full workup, including the psych eval. That's the only way you'll get to the bottom of this.
Good luck! I know this is very scary for both of you.

Yes Sci, it not only scares me, but i am very hurt for that poor thing. She is sleeping right now, like she is purely exhausted, her pulse is normal breathing okay, but oh yes, anyone i think could see she is exhausted. This does have to have followup, yes Sci so true, because something in her physical chemical led to this. She is intelligent, but i could tell ealier when she would stutter her mind was racing. But right now, she is is dream sleep deep sleep land..I have a smile on my face. But she has to first be checked physically, which really they did this today, and she was at the county hospital, because there, they lay it on the line and have around 30 MD's and my guess is at Ben Taub they have probably 200 nurses, yes it is that big. Looks like this one, is going to for sure need a head to toe checkup and be admitted tomorrow and IV, will help to get her chemical level balance. Poor thing..I love all of you as much too. She can know i won't give up on her, i'll take this poor little doll under my wing and and be there. I never give up on anyone and she has me, yes she has me
Oh boy, yep, she's doing good now, im going to lay beside her on a thing i forgot what it's called, but you unfold it, and it's about a foot thick and is real soft, i can't remember now where i bought that, im not surprised at all the junk i have accumulated over the years in this house

A nurse is not a physician. Tomorrow, she needs to be taken to the hospital.

It sounds very similar to what I went through about 8 years ago. Stay with her. She may wake up in the middle of a panic attack, and they are terrifying. Just stay with her. Hold her if that makes her feel better, it didn't work for me. The only thing that made me feel better was to walk outside in the cold air.
As soon as you are able, get her to the doctor/hospital. Don't let them tell you it's nothing. It could be something physical causing the problems or it could be something psychological causing physical problems. Get it checked out. For me, it was MVP (Mitro Valve Prolapse-a heart valve problem) plus PTSD (post-traumatic stress) which caused me to have severe panic attacks. I am glad that I had someone, my family, there to help me through.
Hang in there!

Thank you all, i feel like a peasant. But she was up a little an hour ago, and refreshed, and maintaining, what we are going to do, is shower, together, my back is sore in the lower back and i want to be sure i hold onto her, and shave, go to the bank and then i know a hospital here i know very well, i was raised here and born in 56, oh i know this hospital...She is rested, and is asleep right now, so i'm letting the woman have another hours sleep..Then we will get ready. She is in good hands, please know this folks, i am a very responsible person and am very gentle, and my arm aren't real muscular but my little hands and arms are strong, and i can hold her if she is a little dizzy..I know how to make them take her in, without scoffing her off, as try this..I know how, exactly how!!..I love you people. But one woman in here said a Physician knows more than a nurse..Ummmm, the nurses i know, know more than they do, not all, but you see many of them physicians are wanting to get insurance money. They told me April of this year i had sclerosis of the liver!! I knew that was trash, i don't drink nor do i have the symptoms and have been checked by 5 Md's since and it isn't so!! What happened in April, a piece of brisket grisle got clogged in my lower stomach where the intestines start and caused renal shutdown sydrome..Sydrome, not kidney actual renal shutdown..Those md's wanted to take and do surgery on me, and said you have a distended stomach..Blah..A nurse came in and put lube on a vacuum tube ran it through my left nostril on my nose all the way down to my stomach bottom, pumped out three quarts of backup!! I rose and said i feel new, and she said here Sir, sign this release and go home and just eat rice and soup for a month...Hahahahaha!!...I left them stumped, last checkup i had, they were like wow, blood sugar 90 blood pressure 110 over 70, cat scans, the works, and said, 20 year old body parts, but my lower back has some slight degeneration, but not bad, you move slower but pick up as the day goes with me ...But , yep let me get some coffee and take care of this doll..I love y'all..Earl

Mmm, I'm not so certain she needs psych, as I am not a nurse.
But you mentioned potassium-in Sept my doctor called and said my potassium level was a life threatening low-if it gets too low it can destroy a person's heart.
I felt burnt out, sad, etc. But I felt better after vitamin treatment.
Just don't let any of it seem to be something-insist on getting to the bottom of it.
Good luck Earl...I'll be thinking of you and Janet

thank you Loreli, yep i think Janet needs a balance of nutrients, and needs to start out with B6 and potasium IV, and antibiotic...And needs a IV for like a week, of many nutrients..Loreli, if you feel potasium is low on your side, heck, i et bananas, that's your source, good ol yellow bananas..You look very healthy from your facial view, i see you as being around another 40 years minimum, im serious!!Myself, ummmm, maybe 25, but i've had a hard life Loreli, we just showered, i need to shave, here we go, love yalll!!...Earl
