Looks like dehydration
His lab work is leaning towards dehydration and hopefully this is a mixture of his bad cold, him not being to fond of his "Fat Free diet",and a combination of some of his meds aggravating things more. We are hopeful it is that and we can get him back on the right track. The doctor did say that his BNP was a little elevated and this can indicate heart trouble, but it is not so high that she feels it is something to be overly concerned with at this point. I am going to pray that it is the lesser of the two and he will get his fluids in and pee on his own. The doctor did say that she would check with the nutritionist and see if it is possible to add in more foods that he would want. Our thinking is that if he can have what he has been wanting for the last month he will chow down and get back to normal. Please, Please let it be this simple.
