It's been a about 3 months he's been sick. He has severe pain in his back and stomach. he has no appetite at all. He does have High blood pressure. He has a hard time urinating. And he bleeds from both ends. He is very depressed. His doctor prescribed Benicar for his high blood pressure. He stays sick on his stomach. Before this illness started. about a year ago he had kidney stones real bad. they removed one that was embedded in his kidney that was call a stackhorn that was the size of a .50 piece. He has had liprotripsy several times. I took him to the mayo clinic in XXXXXXX Fl. He seems to be better from that. He has been to Shans in Gainsville Fl a month ago but he is still so sick. I do not know what their diagnosis was.
Brief Answer:
He doesn't need all these medicines as per history
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear
Looking at his history it doesn't seem to be so complicated and he doesn't need all these medicines
In my opinion you should consult a urologist and gastroenterologist for establishment of an diagnosis
bleeding from both ends warrants detailed examination to find out the underlying cause
If you can upload me any lab reports I will be able to guide you better
You should ask your doctor to reduce the antidepressants and anti psychotic drugs, if possible because it produces serious side effects
Hope this answers your query
