My father had pain in right leg and he was unable to move. We took him to doctor in hospital where the doctor asked to get him admitted as it can be a case stroke I don't know why We got him admitted on 1st july they did an MRI and said it is normal Now they said the oxygen level is dropping so they transferred him in MICU Now on 7th july they told us to buy or rent an BIpap machine along with an oxygen cylinder and to hire a caretaker Now i have some doubts Whether they got him admitted because the patient is a retired pensioner and everything is covered under insurance The hospital just started a caretaking service are they promoting it And how do i make sure whether a bipap machine is necessary or not because he had no breathing issues before getting admitted Please help me if anyone can
