Mantle Cell Lymphoma-mental confusion

My husband is 65 years young and in stage 4 of Mantle Cell Lymphoma.  He has completed his 4th round of hypercvad.  He is confused and asks the same question repeatedly. He feels the answers are different each time.  Any ideas how to help and live with mental confusion?

Re: Mantle Cell Lymphoma-mental confusion

Is your husband on any narcotic type pain killers?  When I had my SCT I took/was given every narcotic possible (trying to find one that worked).  I kept having "Groundhogs Day" moments.  I would relive the same situation three and four times in a row.  Horrible, horrible experience.

 

I am sure you brought this to the doc/teams attention.
