Hello,
Here’s the situation: a family member, born in '71, had a stroke 2.5 years ago. Mobility is limited, appetite is non-existent, and vomiting is frequent. They have diabetes and take meds for blood pressure, heart issues, blood sugar, and sleep—Glucophage, Norvasc, etc. Also takes vitamins like Plivit total.
The main issue is they won't eat. Swallowing is hard, and meat is out of the question. It's mostly fruit and sweets like pudding or pancakes. Cooked food, like veggies or soup, just triggers immediate vomiting. Since they're incredibly stubborn about going to a hospital, could this be psychological? Are there any anti-emetic pills available? I've linked the three most recent important test results below. I really need your take on whether an endoscopy is necessary...
Best regards,
