Bacteria In Blood, Having Mild Flue. Cure And Medicine?
hi. my husband keeps falling ill for the last two months and the frequency is every two or one week. he was admitted in a hospital and the doctors discovered bacteria in his blood when they checked his blood for the first time. they have done all possible tests on him and could not find the source of infection . After he came back from hospital (10 days) he is having mild flue again, what can we do to find the reason to cure it?

Hi,I think you should monitor his body temperature,weight & appetite.In case he is having fever, weight loss or loss of appetite , then you should worry. Meanwhile for his flu you can give him antiallergics(antihistaminics),lozenges in case of cough and paracetamol for fever or bodyaches. Hope it helps.
