[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for posting your query. It is unfortunate that your father has had recurrent seizures along with multiple other comorbid illnesses, including generalized edema, hypotension, etc. The cause of generalized edema is likely to be low serum albumin and poor nutritional status. His dietary protein intake can be increased through the Rules tube feeds. For short term improvement, albumin infusions may be given. For nursing, his legs can be elevated while he is sleeping or lying down. This would also help reduce his edema in the legs. If his seizures are not adequately controlled with dopamine, then, other anti-seizure medications such as digital (caramelize) or levetiracetam (Kendra) may be added. I hope it helps. Please get back if you require any additional information. Wishing you good health, Chat Doctor. Ly/
