Hi, I'm The Primary Caretaker For My 97 Year-old Mom.
Hi, I'm the primary caretaker for my 97 year-old mom. After a fall, my mom is sore and has swelling and bruising, but not much pain, except when she is moving around. A nurse prescribed Tramadol 50 mg tablets to reduce swelling and ease her movements. After two doses yesterday my mom woke this morning with shortness of breath and needed a lot more help. She couldn't make it to the table for breakfast and almost collapsed. She has previously walked well with a walker. What should we do? My e-mail is YYYY@YYYY . Thanks.
