A mate of mine's mother regularly had urinary tract infections in her 90's. One of the symptoms was dementia type behaviour, oh and constant swearing! But you're best bet is to ask the medical staff dealing with her, I'm sure they have a broader knowledge on the subject.
Yes, confusion and delirium is associated with uti’s.
I concur with several of the above replies. My ex's elderly aunt seemed to have a touch of insanity due to this very problem - and we thought she had lost it for ever. And I know a middle-aged woman that suffers from it and, after having another dose of antibiotics, has been prescribed oestrogen for it as it is something that is produced less as ladies get older and which can contribute to the problem, I understand.
It’s quite nuts seeing people with UTI’s. My dad was in the royal Glamorgan suffering with liver cancer, he had one and was going on about all sorts, telling me in great detail about all the fish they were bringing into the ward during the night.... sea bass, red mullet, mackerel, they’d have feasts all they the night.....
Only just seen this Sludge my mother in law had the same last year.
When you witness it it is very worrying.
Antibiotics sorted it.
