Medical Case Details:
Had a male patient aged around 70 years with HCC. He had ascitis and tenderness. He started complaining of reduced appetite, decreased strength and difficulty in mobility. A GP had suggested IV fluids which he was advised to take at home. This patient is already on fluid overload. Though there is a drain draining the ascitic fluid, but utilising a pint of NS might not help his complaints of reduced energy and reduced appetite. Good to have solid food if the patient is stable.
