Please HELP!
Please help!
My dad of 62 was placed on Paxil for panic attacks approx 2 yrs ago, after he was first laid off for the first time, and has just been laid off again, for the second time, which might be permanent as a union laborer. He's still on his Paxil and he just experienced numbness in his left arm, following a stressful period he and my retired mother experienced w/ having their electric shut off by their local RG&E provider from the pole since the wires were hot and now they have to bring in an electrician. The real issue is that my dad is a hoarder and they have a huge cleanup first before they'll allow an electrician in to do any work to restore their electric and may not be able to do it themselves and I'm sure are feeling overwhelmed. Obviously, all of this is stressing my dad out.
He now says his numbness has subsided within 30 mins or so, but I'm concerned!
Should I force him to go to the ER NOW even though???? (which will be a 2 hr drive down and literally forcing him to even go)
Helpless 2 hour away daughter w/ stubborn and isolated (hermit like but LOVE dearly) parents!
Please help, any INTELLIGENT advice is appreciated!!!!!
