My husband is being a typical man at the moment. For the past few months in the evening his stomach had been bloating, it becomes huge but goes down by the morning. I thought it was probably something he was eating until 4 weeks ago he spent a week in Crete.
Whilst he was there his ankles and feet swelled terribly, which he put down to mosquito bites. Since he returned he has had a persistant cough (it’s been nearly 3 weeks now, he has been getting breathless and he is so fatigued he is falling asleep in the evening and even feels too tired to have a beer!
The swelling in his legs has gone but his stomach is still bloating. I think he should see the Doctor, there is a very strong history of heart disease in his family, but he thinks it’s nothing to worry about. Am I being a knob or is it a no brainier he should get checked out?
