Dh and his tummy bug

2 replies

My Husband woke up feeling a bit under the weather on Sunday morning, He hadn't slept very well that night so he put it to lack of sleep, anyway during the day he felt worse, he vomited three times (food that he had ate that day) and he had a bit of runny poo couple of times as well. He didn't have a temperature just felt really weak, yesterday he felt weak but He didn't have diarreah or he hasn't vomited since Sunday. He said his tummy still feels a bit queezy and sickly, he still feels a bit weak and looks pale, he also suffers acid reflux and that has been exaggerated since sunday, he is convinced he has something more sinister (stomach cancer) and is panicking.
Any words of advice would be great, he is 46. Thanks.

Sounds much more likely to be a bug than anything else. My dad had stomach cancer at a similar age and those do not sound like stomach cancer symptoms.

My DS had similar symptoms to your DH starting a week ago on Sunday (though just one episode of vomiting and a couple of bouts of diarrhoea), and he also looked very pale for about a week,hardly ate anything and had no energy. I wonder whether there's some kind of virus doing the rounds? Hope your DH feel better soon.

Thanks zen I do think it's a tummy bug as well, but he just gets me worried.x
