She was not cold. This is new. And what do I do? I called the on-call dr. No help. He said he "didn't know her and it could be a thousand things". I walked her to the bathroom and had to clean her up and her poop was green. This is new too. She had a good dinner of fish, fresh broccoli, potatoes so I don't think she was sick from the food. I put her to bed and she was shaking so bad. I just held her hand and stayed with her 'til she fell asleep. I will call her neurologist for appt. but that won't be 'til Monday. Any ideas of what I can be doing to help her and what your experience has been with this? She seems to be going another level downward...

If this doesn't call for an ER visit, I don't know what does. You're going to call her neurologist on Monday for an APPOINTMENT? It's been five hours since your post. If mom is still shaking, call 911.

This could be an infection. If she has a another BM, save some and then take her to ER. Since this is dramatic, maybe you should take her to ER anyway - especially if she has a fever. It's hard to get a doctor to do much over the phone. Certainly, by Monday, follow your plan to get her in to a doctor if no one has seen her before that.
Good luck. Please update us on how this goes.
