She had an asthma attack and had to be hospitalized for three days. The doctor told me that they had to give her steroids to open up her bronchial tubes and that the steroids would cause her to act strangely while in the hospital and for a few days at home.
This strange behavior of being hyper and talking up a storm did happen. She also started biting at her clothes and sheets and also pulling off her blankets and reaching for things with her hands. Once we took her home after three days in the hospital, I thought the steroid effects would wear off but we have been home four days now and on occasion at night, she is still pulling at her blankets and pillows and trying to reach out for things in the sir.
I know that it must still be the steroids in her system but I really thought the effects would have Dissapated by now.
Should I take her to a neurologist? I am starting to get worried! Please help me!

He should probably see her if this goes on beyond a week of being off steroids.
