DH has been suffering for well over a week now with what we thought was the same things as the dc and I have had, swollen glands, sore throat, feeling bleugh.
But his seems to get worse each day rather than better.
He went to the doctor today and she said it is a 'virus' and could last 5 days 
he is now sat suffering, has taken paracetamol and ibuprofen and various times today and they don't really help. He says it feels like he's being stabbed with a screwdriver.
Does anyone know if there is anything I could get for him that could help? I am able to get to a pharmacy.
He's not normally ill and I hate to see him suffering if there is something he can do to ease the pain, even just enough to let him go to sleep. Last night he kept waking me up with his wimper of 'aw'
Bless him
TIA
