Could Intermittent Fever And Cough Be Symptoms Of Flu?

My husband has been running a fever off & on since Thursday morning. Lots of aches & pains. Deep cough, nothing being coughed up. Was on the verge of pneumonia in August. Upset stomach if he eats anything. Thinking he might have the flu that is affecting people s breathing but not sure when we should have him checked by a doctor. If the temp is still there tomorrow, should he go in?
