Hi,I am Dr. Andrew Rynne (Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my friend an 84 yr old stroke patient has had a cough for a week. She has been treated with tylenol with codiene for the pain in her nonusabale right arm and her lexapro has been increased for anxiety. Her codiene has been decreased for 5 days and she is still vomiting not eating much. She haS HER STROKE 3 YEARS AGO AND SHE DOES NOT SPEAK or move. Full time care at home. Is it time for hospice I know it is a general question the family I think is ready to call. Could it be something else another general question?????
