Make sure it is the "glucerna" as that is for diabetes.
Does he have other medical problems you have not mentioned? Blood disorders, Cancer or anything like this? I think your dad knows more than he is telling you. If he denies that something is wrong. You need to go to the doctor with him. Go back into the exam room.The whole 50 yards.
Take care
There is a precription medication called Megace that helps increase apptite. Ask his doctor about it. It may not fir with his medical comdition but it wouldn't hurt to ask
Good Luck
I had thought of that... he does have a wife and she is also concerned about him but I don't think she accompanies him in the exam room! I'll try that!
I found out today that he is on the megace... had that in bottle in another place.
Thanks to you both!
