I have heart failure and I have the opposite of cachexia, dry, always hungry, gaining ( non fluid) weight. But my docs say I should not actively be trying to lose weight.
My husband has been diagnosed with CHF, he’s know for years but in the last month even with edema in legs/feet/stomach he has lost 12% of his body weight. I am in Canada and 1 of the worst healthcare in the world, years to see specialist/testing. I know the prognosis is 3-18 months. He has stopped taking his diuretics and high blood pressure as it caused his gout to go nuts, So my questions is… What can I do to make his last months comfortable as he isn’t eating much and drinks less than 2 cups of liquids a day?
@@How.To.Get.Saved. thank you so very much. Still no help from the heart clinic, they put him on meds, it gives him gout, he goes off them after phoning the clinic a dozen times in 3 months and still doesn’t hear back.. His health is deteriorating fast every day.. Canadian healthcare is the worst..
Hi mam my grandfather is suffering from heart failure and feeling extremely weak all symptoms relate to cardiac cachexia , what supplements can we give but he is also suffering from kidney disease so i guess protein powder will damage kidneys..
6:08 gave it a 👍 for this very reasonable response!
Are there any medicines we can give so he feels more hungry or any alter treatment?
What are the natural remedies for cardiac cachexia? Is there any?

I'm so sorry for what you and your husband are going through. I can't imagine how difficult it must be.

@@lJ0blixen Poor guy. Health"care" doesn't really seem to "care" much. How frustrating for you. I'm so sorry. I'll remember you both in my prayers.🙏
