What Causes Low Pulse Rate While Suffering From Liver Failure?
my wife is in end stage liver failure due to cirrhosis. She is taking all of her meds as prescribed. Her blood pressure is been steadily dropping over the past few days from a high of 131/75 and a pulse of 76 Friday afternoon to 101/569 and a pulse of 54 a few minutes ago. She is also very sleepy. Should I call 911 or take her to the ER?
