I do believe when someone continually thinks about a certain medical problem they will begin to think it is worse than it actually is. Im not saying that your husband isnt having a problem. Im thinking he does have something going on but if the doctors cant help him maybe he is thinking about it so much that its all he thinks about and his focus is on how bad this is, not how lucky he is to be alive after everything he went thru. I would give it a try and if it does not help in 2 months (they take a while to work) then discontinue them. I sure is better than having him feel like this all the time.
Good luck!!!
