He has fluctuated between stage 2 and 3 for the last year and a half. Recently his physician did his banding and wanted to see him back in a month as he says he is back to stage 3. yesterday he did not eat anything was very sluggish and had fever rising from 101 to 104. He is 82 yrs old.What would this fever be due to and what should be done to bring it down? Will you advise a liver transplant at this age ?
