An 85 year old woman with heart disease is dizzy, nauseous and not hungry. She also has diabetes type 2. I checked her for stroke symptoms through fast but she smiles normally and can hold her hands up and talk. Should I take her to the hospital immediately or in the morning?

Hello LYDIA, I would recommend that she be given immediate medical attention as the pulse in some possible cases may fall rapidly if not given attention in time. Do remember to let me know of her whereabouts! Take care.
