Reason For The Sudden Speech Impairment?
My dad is in the hospital right now. He came in with sweating, cold chills, and diarrhea. Since being here he has developed slow speech impairment. He does recognize that he is speaking differently and wanting to know what is causing this issue. Can you offer me any advise. Thank you

Hi,
I have gone through your query; it suggests that your dad may be suffering from the stroke if your dad is hypertensive.
Better to consult the ENT specialist for laryngoscopy or to rule out the other causes of speech impairment.
Thanks
