My DH has been ill since before Christmas with various chest infections, sore throats, sinus pain. He's been to the doctor 4 times and every time they have said it'll clear up on its own / he doesn't need anti-biotics, I think because he has had 1-2 days in between each illness they are seeing them as separate occurrences.
Last time he went he got quite annoyed with them an insisted on a blood test as we can't understand why he keeps getting ill constantly. His blood test results came back as flagging inflammation and he's got to go back on 4th April and have another test to see if its still there. He also just received a letter saying his blood test showed high sugar levels (he got 42, whereas anything under 42 is normal) and is pre-diabetic and to make lifestyle changes.
He's now been coughing up thick, green and brown and yellow mucus for weeks (sometimes so thick he says its more like a solid) and he even smells ill.
I'm at a loss. What do we do?
