I had a reaction to the anti-nausea medicine and would pace the floor. I was exhausted and could barely walk after doing it for hours. It turned out to be the compazine which didnt agree with me.
Do you have anyone who can hang around for a couple hours to give you a break and get out of the house? Done forget caregivers have a rough job and need to take care of themselves too.
