A member asked:
My dad is having a rough night this is 3 weeks out from having a tumor removed. he is extra weak tonight, slurring his words. temp is 98.9?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Contact his treating: His treating doctor should be contacted and informed about the slurred speech. The causes can be many. It requires more detailed history and physical exam to determine the cause. That is why you should let his doctor know even if it is night time as there will be an on call doc who will answer the call. Good luck.
