My uncle comes around to my house every 2-3 weeks but whenever he comes around he just falls asleep. I think hes on medication and he smokes. He falls asleep at 12am most nights and he apparently wakes up at 6am. I'm kind of worried because he looks pale as well. What do I do?

Where are your parents? Get him in a cab or Uber it to a Urgent Care or hospital. 53 is too young to have these issues. Pale means issues with his heart or anemia (blood Loss) he could have a undiagnosed GI bleed or some kind of cancer not allowing his bone marrow make blood cells. Or he could be on some kind of medication causing his blood pressure to tank. Do you smell any alcohol? Call 911 if you have too. Also watch a youtube video on how to do CPR. It's all about chest compressions now, and very little mouth to mouth. I wish the best for you and your uncle. You are too young to have this weight on your shoulders.

NeedMedAnswers...You are such a sweetheart so young & so worried about your uncle..Can you get a adult to get your uncle to make a appointment at the doctors it probably is nothing to worry about may just be low iron that can make you tired to..Please try not to worry & talk to your uncle or your parents let them know you are worried. And yes if he is on other medications that can also make him tired too.

NeedMedAnswers, we need to have more information. Such as how old is your Uncle? if he is in his 80's or 90's, it is very common at that age to nap a lot because the person lived a very long life, they are tired.

What are your Uncles health issues. If he is taking meds for high blood pressure, that also can make you very tired until the doctor adjusts the dosage.

Another thing, your Uncle could be bored. Unless he is up and above moving around, he will doze off [I know I do].
