My husband, who has had diabetes for more than five years, was recently diagnosed with bronchiectasis and just last week he had pneumonia and was hospitalized for 5 days. He has had rapid weight loss (over 6 kilograms) since the beginning of this year, and his skin has lost much elasticity and fat. What could be cause of this sudden downturn as all these years his diabetes was very well controlled with proper diet and medication?
