hi. someone i know had under gone 2 major surgeries because of a hemorrhage on the skull . he is a heart patient and takes morphine . for the surgery the doctors had to stop morphine. the 2 surgeries were successful but there were 2 clots. the clots are not disappearing and he is too weak to perform a surgery to remove the clots. the clots are currently in the neck as shown by scans taken 2 days ago. the patient is currently paralyzed according to doctors. they want to air lift the patient to london and give him therapy to eradicate the clots. what else can be done to get the patient back to a stable condition? thanks
Hi, Thank you for posting your query.First, we need some clarifications and little more data for us to give a good second opinion. Why is morphine used for this heart patient? Morphine is not indicated in any heart patient. Some heart patients may require warfarin to keep the blood thin and prevent clotting. Do you mean warfarin or morphine? Second, we need to see the scan reports of brain and neck. If possible, please upload them. I hope it helps. Please get back if you require any additional information. Wishing you good health, Chat Doctor. Ly/
