Oh JD I'm so sorry to hear he's got worse, it sounds awful for both of you, take care of yourself x

[Two hoots]

Ohh he does sound poorly 

You are in a really horrible situation, but you've spoken to to someone , if they haven't reduced your anxiety could you phone your local doctors surgery ?

Keep being strong 

[CLKD]

My suggestion.  Ring your GP  ASAP   .........    who has his medical records.  Nightmares happen when someone spikes a temperature: they are OK for a while then it shoots up.  Is he cold when he gets the shakes, is it when the temperature begins to come down for a while?  It could also be low blood sugar if he hasn't eaten.  Do you have any Dextrose tablets?

[littleminnie]

So sorry he is so poorly.      Nightmares and hallucinations come with a high temperature.  I would also ring the doctor and see if you can get a callback.
Would he have some clear soup to try and get some nutrition in him? Or maybe one of those vitamin drinks to see if that helps him to fight it off.

Hot Bovril in a mug?  Soothing.  Not 'complan' though

Jilly. I'm so sorry. As littleminni says a temp can maybe cause the vivid nightmares, flashing lights.  I have seen it happen before to loved ones with a high temp.

I wish I could say or do something to help. Sending love. Xxxx

So sorry about your hubby JD. Not really a lot more you can do but continue with what you are doing and ride it out. If he gets worse though ring 111 again for advice.

Hope he starts to come out of this soon and remember to look after yourself x

[Yorkshire Girl]

So sorry to hear your OH has gone down hill, Jillydoll. I was listening to Radio 2 earlier and Dr Sarah Jarvis pointed out that not everyone gets a cough! Hope you are doing ok, need to look after yourself distance

[Barnacle]

Sending you a huge hug Jilly. I will be keeping you both in my thoughts x

[CLKD]

You may get different advice too ;-)

[Taz2]

So sorry to read this Jill. Such a worry for you. I haven't read all of your comments so I'm not sure when he became ill and what he's first symptoms were?

Hope your husband soon improves Jillydoll.

All of this just got real.

My daughters boyfriend's aunt, who is more like his mum, has just been taken to hospital with pneumonia after saying 10 days ago she thought she had Covid but last weekend thought she was on the mend. She has been put into a drug induced coma.

Daughter is in shock.  Me too and I have never even met her!
