I am the caregiver. My spouse RT ended 2 months ago. He has returned to work (as full time as possible). We even went out for dinner a month ago (anniversary) so what is going on?

He complained of heartburn Friday and then the next day he complained about his throat. I noticed on Sunday that his voice was hoarse but he is getting sicker every day. He can't stand up for long because he thinks he will pass out (light-headed). He can't go to work now. He gets physically ill from just eating Chicken Broth. His BP is ok but his pulse is high.

He won't let me call the Oncologist or call the ER. He has had a regular Doctor appt scheduled for tomorrow so he has said NO to my other suggestions.

He is as sick IMO, as he appeared to be during the end of RT (not at all the same pain).

Any suggestions or ideas?
