Thanks SD-he actually has end stage liver disease and the symptoms were really flaring up last week to the point where he couldn't even lift his head so I took him to the ER-they gave him some meds, ran his blood work and then we left. It's really just treating for quality of life. He has good days and bad days. When he has good days-they are really good-he can go to work and also participate in other activities hat he really enjoys. When he has bad days-they are really bad.
He's feeling okay today and plans to work tomorrow. He's retired but has a part time job that he enjoys that doesn't require hard physical labor.
