I'm worried about my husband
My husband just got back from out of state and since he has been back he's been having all kinds of medical problems yet refuses to go to the dr so this is my only hope for an answer. For months he has been coughing up black stuff, he's been having pain in his upper abdomen, he's found lumps in his testicles, fatigued, rash (not raised, not itchy, skin tone in color) he complains about hurting lungs, his lower back constantly hurts, he is constantly in pain where his lungs are but in the back, I don't know what to do because he says there is to much wrong with him to waste his time at the dr someone please help me
Your husband sounds illogical. He thinks there is too much wrong with him to seek help from a doctor, but the doctor is the one place where he should go for help for his many symptoms which may or may not be related.
Coughing up black stuff is not good. Ask him to see a doctor just for that, all the other things could be related. Keep in mind that if it is something like tuberculosis, it could be contagious to you, ask him if he wants to get everyone around him sick. In other words, maybe he will see a doctor for others' sake even if not for his own.
