Hi
Sorry I can't offer any practical advice as haven't experienced this with my husband, he has cancer in lung, lymph node in shoulder and brain, but didn't want you to have no replies from anyone as I'm sure you're worried sick.
It's a good thing that they admitted him though as at least they can treat whatever is causing it and look after him.
I hope you are ok and looking after yourself, which I know is terribly difficult when you're worried about the person you love.

Hi Newby234
What a worrying time for you. Your husband should receive the right care now that he is in hospital and the problem seems to be getting investigated. It is common for people to develop infections especially while receiving chemotherapy when their immunity is lowered. Hopefully it will be a short stay for your husband and things will resolve soon.
