Guest guest Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 I have not noticed much changes as it may relate to the weather, but my mom was experiencing a decrease in appetite, which is usually very good, and we found she had become dehydrated. After pushing fluids she did get better, just FYI Robin Green Loving daughter of Bobbie Diagnosed with LB May 2008 Beavercreek, Ohio ________________________________ To: LBDcaregivers Sent: Saturday, April 14, 2012 10:07 PM Subject: Weather changes & eating  I was wondering if anyone has a loved one that doesn't eat when the weather is cold & rainy or just rainy? Seems like my aunt doesn't eat when we get this type of weather. The last 2 weeks it's been changing from cold to warm up & down with temps & very rainy. She hasn't ate or drank much in this time, and I am worried. I don't know if it's just a coincidence or not, but it just seems like when we get nasty weather, her eating habits decline. She doesn't moan out very much anymore, but I still think she is in pain. She has osteoarthris also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 I do push fluids, but sometimes she just will not take them. She has always been a good drinker when it comes to variety of juices etc. Most of the time she will drink & not eat. But these last 2 weeks she doesn't do much of either. Thank you though. > > I have not noticed much changes as it may relate to the weather, but my mom was experiencing a decrease in appetite, which is usually very good, and we found she had become dehydrated.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 I guess no one else has any issues with weather changes & eating I take it? I also found a big ulcer on the inside of her lip, I am hoping this is the reason for eating & drinking less. I pray once it's healed she resumes her appetite. > > I was wondering if anyone has a loved one that doesn't eat when the weather is cold & rainy or just rainy?
