Is there any progress?

I saw Edna today for the first time in 2 days.hoping I would be able to detect a change if there was one. To my disaapointment I don't really have anything to report.

She told me she felt depressed. She seemed very down compared with how she had been . Is that cogniton returning or is that a side effect of the treatment.

She aso told me she had lost weight. This seems possible but I am not sure if it is real of one her 'surmisinings'. If it IS real , again anorexia is a known side effect of the drug.

Accvording to PICS she should have been discharged on the 20th March - so I went in expecting to find plans being made for her discharge but no-one said anything to me.

She is still talking about seeing Doris, and being moved about the ward so obviously she is still surmising things.

So I am very unsure what is going on. I need to talk to a nurse and a social worker.
