How To Treat A Flu Hit Causing Nosebleeds After Prostatitis?

My husband was just getting over a bout with prostatitis when the stomach flu hit. Every time he vomited he would have a nosebleed in his right nostril. The nosebleeds happen once every two or three years when it s dry. He has stopped vomiting but still has an upset stomach. This began Friday morning. He still is sleeping most of the time and doesn t want anything to eat. He can get up to go to the bathroom. His stool is dark. There was a considerable amount of blood with each nosebleed. He can t see the doctor until tomorrow. He is 62. Should I be concerned or wait it out until tomorrow?
