I'm 15 and i stay up all night and sleep all day. Sometimes going to bed at 9 AM and getting up at 5 pm. A week ago my dad got gout in his hand and he started taking this medication to help get rid of it. Hes took if before and it makes him tired. So while he was taking it this time, i noticticed everyday when i got up that for the past week, hes been taking 3-4 hour naps. One time he gets up and hes just quiet. I noticed he coughed and it was a wet cough. He kept coughing on and off. I asked, "are you feeling okay?", "your acting strange". His replay was, "yes im fine dont worry." Ever since then (about 4 days ago it was until this day.) Hes been sleeping and has a wet cough. He has CHF, COPD, and Chronic Gout. Now i know the side effects of CHF are tiredness, shortness of breath, and all that. But do you think fluid is backing up into his lungs again?
His gout meds hes on are "indacin" or something.
