It’s a crazy disease. Just when you think you understand what is going on it changes! Do you have a BP monitor and pulse oximeter at home? Getting some regular readings can help to see what is normal, what is abnormal and when it changes for him at this stage. Apart from that make sure that he is getting enough fluids, nutrition and rest and then ride out the chest infection and it’s aftermath. Things will probably stabilise but maybe at a new normal for him.

Best wishes to you both. Diane.
