If not, please find a way to do this. A trained medical professional with significant experience is where all these questions should be asked first. We can help manage side effects but we can't diagnose concerns here. We aren't qualified and we can't see from here.
Have you considered anxiety meds? This is very stressful and your constant worry is very common. Your father is so fortunate to have you with him through this.
