my dad is acting really weird. he was cooking the food and he was all swaying back and forth and he said he couldn't see anything. like, everything was blurry and he was slurring all of his words. and he was talking crazy. basically, he was acting like he was drunk or high. but he wasn't drinking enough to get like that, and he doesn't smoke, and he said its been like this for three days now, just getting worse. he's really bad off right now, but he won't go to the hospital and i told my mom that if he didn't, and died tonight, there would be no reason for life insurance or anything, which is the whole reason why he won't go. he's really bad off, and i dont know what this is. do you have any ideas with what's wrong with him?

He could be having mini-strokes. He needs to go to the dr tonight. Call the ambulance and have them come get him.

I'm not a dr. but I know slurring like that can be caused by a stroke. The sooner you are treated, the better your chances of recovery. I am sorry you are going through this. I know it must be stressful not having insurance and being worried about your dad.

Hi there !
You will not get any proper reply for such a question since the symptoms you have given are inadequate. Also, no doctor will be able to cast an opinion on such a case, unless he sees the patients directly.
So, as many have opined, pick up the phone....now....!
don't delay it for tomorrow..okay ?
best wishes and wish him a speedy recovery too.

I'm not saying it is but those are symptoms of a stroke, If he is slurring his words, loss of strength in any limbs, or acting confused, call an ambulance, if he says no, sneak off and call one anyways.

it sounds like he is having a diabetic crisis, and he needs to see a doctor, if you are old enough call an aid unit and have them evaluate him, if you aren't then wait til he passes out, then call 911.
