What Causes Difficulty In Swallowing Food And Internal Bleeding In The Brain?
my brother who 79 years of age and has been diabetic since his early forties -- type 1 He has always been un controllable and has severe low blood sugars sometimes with no warning. Also recently has been told he has blood seeping within the brain perhaps due to head injuries from football in high school. He now has an issue swallowing food and is being given pureed food. He dose not remember what the doctor told him what was wrong or the cause. Can you help me understand?
