I called my Aunt Betty and she agreed I should talk to my dad's doctor. So I called him. The doctor thought dad had trouble sleeping, I explained the trouble wasn't that he couldn't sleep but that ALL he was doing was sleeping.
The doctor and I talked a little and he said he would talk to my dad about upping his meds. Sure enough he called dad and called in a new prescription for dad. The doctor said it could take up to a week to see a difference and for me to keep in touch with him.
So right now I feel better about things. And I am thrilled that my dad didn't get mad at me for calling his doctor.

I am so pleased that you got to talk to your Dad's doctor. I am sure he appreciated your care for your Dad. I do hope that the new medication will soon start to work but I am sure you realise that it might take a long time for Dad to get back to his old self. Take care. Love Sybilxx

I'm glad your dad's dr. was willing to listen to you and do what he can to help. I'm keeping your dad in my prayers on the smoke that the new medication works for him. (Hugs)Indigo
I'm glad you were able to speak to his doctor.
