Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
I would come up with these possibilities with measures for this type of case , these includes.
1 Avoid greasy, salty , fatty foods .As you mentioned that your father is a diabetic case so regular blood sugar level as well monitor of blood pressure is very important . So deal according to these measures.
2 As you mentioned that your father is a diabetic as well hypertensive patient .In my opinion all these symptoms of paralysis may be due to congestive heart failure , diagnosis can be confirmed by E K G and ECHO .
3 Essential hyper tension may be the another reason, diagnosis can be confirmed by physical examination as well clinical examination.
In my opinion at this age of 63 years all these symptoms are a cause of concern , so consult a cardiologist and get his opinion.
Good luck. Dr. HET
