Hi Sir,
I understand your concern.
Your uncle's symptoms are suggestive of Probable Heart failure and pulmonary edema.
He needs continuous vitals and blood pressure monitoring in an Intensive care unit.
Continuous I v dopamine drip is needed until blood pressure settles.
I advise you to consult Apollo hospitals immediately for expert critical care and management.
Post your further queries if any,
Thank you.
