Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, How are you? My name is Dr Suresh Raghavaiah. I am a liver transplant surgeon and I hope to answer your question today. By the history you have provided, I am worried that he might be suffering from hepatic encephalopathy which is a complication of liver cirrhosis. Encephalopthy can be precipitated by a lot of things (infections, medications, etc) but in most cases it is easily treatbale. In your Dad's case, it could very well been brought on by the proxyvon tablet, but infections have to be ruled out. Please let me know your geographical location so i can guide you to the nearest liver specialist.
Hope this helps and hope your dad starts to feel better.
