How do I know when Dad needs to see a doctor? Yesterday he threw up when he woke up, but then he seemed to be OK the rest of the day. Today, he seems really under the weather. He wants to know why he feels so bad. He said it's just a general 'bad' feeling - nothing specific. He has even less energy than usual and his speech is much worse than usual. He seems to hardly have the energy to try to speak.
He doesn't have a fever, though he says he's feeling hot and cold. His sugar level is OK and he's still eating. He doesn't think it's his heart. He uses the bipap most of the day.
Will he just have days like this with ALS? Thoughts on what else I should be considering?
Thanks,
