Hi my name is Connie and I am the primary care giver of my husband with alzheimers. I am not a professional but something similiar happened to me you might want to check out. I hurt my back really bad three months ago, I was taken by ambulance to the hospital and learned my spine has compacted due to osteoporsis and in two years I will need hip replacements but now I need a complete knee joint replacement and am awaiting surgery on that. Back to your question when they release me with my back they put me on a very strong pain medication called Hydromoriphine. I was on this for three days and hated the way it made me feel so I quit taking it and just dealt with the pain. About a week later packages started arriving at my house that I had no memory of ordering anything. My Granddaughter got to checking and I was getting up at night getting on my computer and shopping. I have absolutely no memory of it. I know I did it because it showed up on the computer. I have never ever shopped on line and didn't think I knew how to do it but apparently while taking this drug I did it. It took us over two weeks and a lot of money to return all the things I bought, you can't imagine how many things I bought in such a short period. Fortunately most of the company's were nice and took everything back but I had to pay the postage. Serveral hundreds of dollars later it was returned. I do not nor would I ever take that stuff again and I have told my family if I ever am put on anything similiar to make sure my computer is secure so I don't repeat this. You might want to check with your mothers doctor and research her medications on line because some not all but some medications can cause this type of reaction. Take care and don't give up you have come to the right place for advice and help. Connie
