Flu like symptoms could be a heart issue, Most probable would be a dry cough, muscle fatigue, etc. If the symptoms your husband is experiencing doesn't subside within a few days, it may be a good idea to consult a doctor, because a flu can become a respiratory problem that can indirectly cause distress for heart with unfavorable medical concerns.

Thanks for your question.  take care.
