Hi everyone,
Well, yesterday my dad got his Peg tube put in and everything went ok, but was in pain and could only take children's tylenol. Around 5:30 yesterday night my mom had to call an ambulance, because he had a fainting spell. Mom was taking him to the bathroom and he fell over into her arms and they got him on the bed and put the BIPAP on him, but he wasn't coming out of it, that's when they called 911. They believe he was dehydrated and that's what caused the fainting. They did a CAT scan of the Peg tube and everything was fine. They got to go home last night and he's resting today. For some reason when my mom was telling me they had to put him on the BIPAP it was like she hesitated for a second and I said mom?? Did he stop breathing? She said that the BIPAP tells you when he's breathing and when the machine is breathing for you and she said the machine did the breathing for him a couple of times....Hopefully I am saying this right about how the BIPAP works....This disease is horrible!
Thanks for listening!
