Symptom narrative

During the night, my husband was extremely confused and incoherent (unlike his usual issues due to dementia), he could not walk easily, he was incontinent (urinating on the floor), I could not get him into the bed completely. In the morning (October 15,2025) he was sitting on the toilet in excrement and was unable to stand. I called EMS, and he was taken to Hospital ER and was there all day. All tests were normal (chest x-ray; CT scan of brain; urinalysis; blood work; negative for COVID and the flu. They could find no reason for his symptoms except for a possible reaction to the COVID vaccination. He was able to come home after determining that he was able to stand and walk unassisted. For a few more days, he was not back to his "normal."
