Hi
Thanks for writing to the forum!
There is a chance that your father suffers from both insomnia and oversleeping. The first night he has a disturbed sleep , hence he sleeps over the next day.
The other possibility is that he is depressed. You can go over this link for signs of depression in elderly: http://www.eldercare.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=CG_Resources&file=article&sid=958
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
Hi ....do you think this might be caused by his medications? He is taking Atacand, Norvasc, Bystolic, Zolof, Restasis for his eyes and an Exelon Patch for memory.
Thanks
