Thank you so much for all your replies. It does appear my husband is one of the unluckier ones, although by no means alone.
Andy, I didn’t realise about the anaemia, so we’ll keep an eye on diet now we know. 👍🏻
It’s encouraging to hear that things do settle down before too long. (J-B, you’re amazing! - I can’t imagine my husband hiking 5 weeks from now, but you’re certainly giving me hope!!)
Thanks for sharing your experiences, tips and wisdom. It’s really helped me a lot. My husband’s been awake much more today and eating much better. He even made a cup of tea this evening, which he couldn’t have done a day or two ago. Things are still tough for him and he hates not having the energy to get off the sofa but it sounds like we may only have one more week like this, then hopefully things will improve. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Take care, you lovely folk!
