Restlessness after Surgery
My 78-year-old grand father had recent hip surgery 15 days ago Initially (few days after surgery), he had: confusion and delirium which improved after we started melatonin 3mg. But for the last 3 days: during daytime he is mostly normal At night (after ~9 PM), he becomes very restless: keeps turning left - straight continuously cannot stay in one position even for a few seconds asks to sit every 10–15 minutes, sits briefly, then lies down and repeats appears sleepy but unable to fall asleep There are no hallucinations now, but restlessness is severe. His reports show low sodium (129). His sugar in today morning - 78 2 hours After lunch (just 2 spoon) - 90 He is also eating very little. He doesn't like taste of anything at all. No juice, no food nothing. He's hardly eating 2-3 spoon. So somehow I started giving him ORS twice a day. And yes He's very stubborn person - doesn't like to go or stay in hospitals. even for broken bone surgery we had to convince him too much.
