My boyfriends condition is deteriorating!!

It all started about 3 days ago when he sent me a message saying he had the sniffles. I was away at work for the week so he was home alone. Everyone gets the sniffles in winter (it’s winter here in Australia) so I didn’t think anything of it.

The following day he text me saying he was ‘fatigued and lethargic’. I thought ‘okay, he probably has a cold or something, he’ll be fine!’

Over the past couple of days things for him have gone down hill. Yesterday I spoke to him and he said ‘I seriously think I’m getting the flu!’ I started to think that it might be something more serious than I thought.

He sent me a message this morning that said ‘My condition is deteriorating. It’s bad. I think I should cancel my flight training this weekend’. I started to panic because that’s 4 days away so he must feel REALLY sick to cancel his flight training. I try convince him to go to the doctors but he said he has to try get this stuff done at work today even though he’d rather be in bed.

So I get home this afternoon and the house is a mess. He never usually leaves the place messy for me when I come home so I was worried. I tidy up and start trying to make thing clean and comfortable for when he gets home from work.

When he gets home I expect to see a dead man walking but he is completely fine. He looks healthy, he looks happy, he just has congestion and a slight sore throat.

I’m like ‘Babe, I thought you were really sick!’

He said ‘I am sick. I feel awful!’ 😔😢😷🤧🤒

I said ‘You said your condition was deteriorating!’

He said ‘It has! I can’t breathe out of my nose. I have to breathe out of my mouth!’

I’m like... 😐

Man flu is so bloody real!!!! 🙄🙄🙄 I really think they need a specialised team at the hospital specifically for man flu.

UPDATE - So it has been a rough couple of days but I think my man is going to pull through. It was touch and go for a while but I got him to have a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar last night and told him that it is one of the best things you can have to treat the ‘flu’ (he definitely only has a cold, not the flu 🙄 and I don’t actually know how much help it would be 🙊🤷‍♀️).

Anyway, he told me tonight that ‘I’m actually feeling a LITTLE BIT better tonight. I really think that Apple cider vinegar helped last night. I could feel it working almost straight away..... not that there is anything wrong with me according to you 😒🤧🤒😷😔’

So I feel like he is on the mend. I may have had to give him the miracle cure in apple cider vinegar, but he is finally out of the woods. 🎊🎉🎈🎊🎉🎈🎊🎉😆

Thank you all for your well wishes and support during this difficult time. I don’t know how I would have gotten through it if it wasn’t for all of you!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Fortunately he wasn’t this bad 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 😂😂😂
