Hi,
Your father is diabetic with hypertension and now recently diagnosed as CIDP

Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is an acquired immune-mediated inflammatory disorder of the peripheral nervous system.

Treatment includes parenteral steroids /oral steroids.Sice he is diabetic steroids can further increase his sugar level for which insulin doses has to be adjusted which require hospitalization.

Second Lumbar puncture to be done and drain CSF before starting steroids to rule out infective causes and look for albumincytological dissociation

Go ahead with neurologist advise
