Sudden weakness. Unable to walk or move

2018-03-27 08:33:30
My grandfather is 97 years old. Suddenly yesterday his legs and other things became very weak. We took him to a hospital. He was given 2 units of IV and doctor told that everything was normal. He has now become weak and is not able to walk or sit properly or even move without others help. What might be causing it ? Please help !!!
