Brief Answer:
Requires investigations and evaluation of case.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for posting query.

I went through the details provided with diligence and I strongly believe he needs to be investigated thoroughly. He might need the following investigation which will help us arrive at a diagnosis.
1, Complete blood checking like WBC count, ESR, Hb. gm %, blood sugar,
2, Complete urine test
3, STD tests,
4, Ultra sound of abdomen,
5, X-ray chest, PA view.

Your local physician will know about these tests. It may or may not be the flu; based on your description, it looks less likely to be due to flu. Hence do not ignore it. Consult a physician and discuss about my views.

In the interim, give him high nourishing diet, fresh fruits.
Give him multivitamin, B.complex, folic acid supplements.
Give him complete rest.

I hope, I answered your query.
If you have further query or clarification, please write back.
I wish speedy recovery of your husband.
