My husband doesn't seem to take the risk from Coronovirus to us seriously enough. I have asthma and it's very bad at the moment. I had a fall 4 weeks ago and injured my chest, after 2 weeks I went to the gp twice and was 'fobbed off' with ibuprofen gel. Eventually I went to Urgent care and had an x-ray and found a cracked rib and inflammation around it. The hospital doctor gave me steroids for a week to strengthen my lungs. I still am quite wheezy and very worried. Up until today my husband hasn't really registered that I am vulnerable and only last week stopped going into London (Public transport) when everyone else was told to work at home. He normally works at home 3 days a week and wouldn't ask to stay home before as 'everyone will ask!'. I managed to persuade him to go food shopping today and he came in and I had to remind him to wash his hands!! He doesn't think we're going to get it, and that all the advice doesn't affect us! How do I get him to realise I'm quite vulnerable, he would be OK, he's a very fit 55 year old! I'm only 53 but I have several underlying conditions. At least we have these lovely fur babies to take for walks, and that keeps me sane at this unprescedented time.
4 Years On…..Health-wise, Has Anything Changed?
