So first off please forgive me if I jump around-this is a lot of info to cover.
Ok, so my husband stopped smoking 3 years ago (one of our deals before we got married) and it seems as if he has had problems every since. EVERY morning he hacks and gags "stuff" up and says he is trying to clear himself out, eew I know. Well he only smoked for maybe a year, so I really don't think it should give him this kind of trouble. He also has soooo many upper resp problems and he cannot even be around smoke, cigars or anything tobacco related or he gets these "spells" where he can barely move and gets extremely sick on his stomach. I mean this happened on our anniversary cruise and it put him out for almost a full day. I should also state that he is not a complainer what so ever, so when he gets like this I know there is something seriously wrong with him. So anyway besides those types of spells he gets sick literally 3-4+ times a year. He is just your regular guy, very physically active no history of strange problems. So today he called and said he needed a dr. appt asap, as I'm thinking oh noo not again. I was determined to go with him and tell the doctor there is something more to it this time. He was just at work (lots of dust & chemicals) and it hit him--he said every muscle & joint ached terribly, he couldnt hold his own bodyweight up, sick on his stomach, sweating just horrible feeling. So we go to the dr. and he orders tons of blood work and x-rays (he threw around leukemia & lupas?) so now I am really worried. He's in bed now ocassionally getting up sick and vomiting. I have asked if he needs to go to the ER and he says "not yet" He just doens't look right to me and I know my husband. I'm sorry I'm jumping around so much and it doesn't sound too severe but if you knew all his problems he has you would understand. So please let me know if anyone has ever dealt with anything like this or any suggestions you may have. It's killing me to have to wait all weekend for test results
