My mother spent 6 weeks sedated with Fentanyl, on top of Alzheimer's. After a few days I realized she would survive. But she was in a hellish state for over a year, hallucinating and constructing parallel realities.
Ironically, she worked on the UK medical trial for Fentanyl when it was first introduced for surgery.
