I got her actual medications from her caregiver and I feel the medications are not sufficient.

Tramadol and paracetamol for pain - 37.5 mg
Stilnox 10 mg sleep aid.

So sad!!!

The sleep aid may be what is making her tired along with the pain killers. Maybe they can give her something that will kill the pain but allow her some normalcy. hugs

Ina,

Is hospice service available to her? One of their specialties is to consult on options to achieve more comfort and less pain.
