My husband has had a 100.2 fever for the past three nights. Starts feeling low energy and needing a nap around 3:30/4...very stiff and achy after the nap. By 7/8:00 temperature starts to rise. Any experience with this?

Why do you say “don’t do flu shots”? I’m on Zytega prednisone lupron. Should I not get a flu shot?

We just never do flu shots, regardless.

My husband had a slight fever for a day or 2 and had uncomfortable feeling urinating. Our MO gave him antibiotics and all went away. Hope your husband is just having minor infection as well.
