    Worried about my fiancé

    Hello all,
    I have dealt with health anxiety all my life (I’m 23). For the past month, my fiancé has been sick. He is one of the types of people that absolutely HATES going to the doctor. I am know kicking myself for not pushing him to go. He’s been having night sweats and a cold that won’t go away. He complains of headaches too but has a stressful job. His muscles ache as well. I finally made him go to the doctor today and they diagnosed him with a double ear infection. Our six month old son also has an ear infection! The doctor was very concerned about his night sweats and kept saying how odd it was. He wakes up freezing :( well, I made them run a CBC and we get the results in three days. I work on a cancer floor at the hospital and am freaking out that he has lymphoma. I see a lot of young men with it :( I don’t know what to do. He’s on antibiotics now. I’m just so worried that the blood will show something sinister

    Well done to him for going.

    It's scary but it could easily be an infection aswell.

    You've done the right thing by getting the relevant tests organised! Hopefully they will be nothing to worry about x

    Wouldn’t night sweats be a result of the fever due to infection?

    Hope he’s better soon.

    Agreed. Double ear infection would cause fever. Fever causes sweating and feeling cold. To me, these go hand in hand. I don't understand why the Dr was confused by it...
