Hallucinations

My husband woke in the middle of the night and said to the caregiver that he thought the fan was going to fall down on him. He had worked himself to be sprawled horizontally in the bed. Amazing in that itself as he can hardly move.

The question is: is this a "normal" symptom with PSP and CBD?

Yes, hallucinations happen. It may be a one time episode or they may recur.

Yes it’s normal. G used to say there were spiders on the ceiling, and no matter if I told her there weren’t she would say there were. In the end I just pretended to get rid of them as this would appease her rather than upset and confuse her that she was seeing things.

Yes it is common, though sometimes it is caused by a bladder infection.

As kenh1 said a possible bladder infection should be looked into. That would or could cause hallucinations.
