<human>: My mum,s been on dicorate drug for about three years. She has no history of seizures or bipolar disorder. I think it may have been given for migraine headaches, which she consistently had. She is a heavy diabetic patient. She now seems to be deteriorating where her cordination and speech is slurred. Can you help. Thanks
<bot>: Hello, Her symptoms could be related to small repeated strokes, considering the fact that she suffers from diabetes.  For this reason, I recommend consulting with her neurologist for a physical exam and a brain MRI.  Some blood lab tests may be needed (complete blood count, blood lipid profile) coupled with a Doppler ultrasound of her carotid arteries.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
