Ugh, stopped it completely now. He has lost 10 pounds in less than two weeks. This is all so complicated. Not sure if the weight loss is due to the nausea as his eating habits hadn't really changed up until the last day or so. It could have been due to muscle loss or just the extra work his body is going through to breathe or a combination of everything. He has had a low grade fever the past couple of days. Maybe it's the meds, maybe he's getting pneumonia from the aspiration, maybe he just has a cold... The nurse was here yesterday and said to wait a few days after stopping the Riluzole and see if he feels better, but to let her know if his temp gets worse or he starts coughing (which he really can't do much anymore). Ugh.
