My husband has pink eye and now he's running a fever. I'm guessing its the flu cause all his joints hurt. My question is, would it be ok to sleep in the same bed as him without me catching it? I sanitized everything and changed the sheets. My couch is not that comfortable and I really need a good night sleep.

Forget the move you have been with him while he was incubating the disease but not yet showing symptoms. You have been sufficiently exposed that If you are going to get ill you will.
Which is not inescapable. You may immune to the virus that is making him ill. Help him comfort him, while your health is good. Also get lots of rest and multivitamins and vitamin c.
You may beat the bug without symptoms.
So forget the crummy couch.
Good luck,
D.

No pink eye is highly HIGHLY contagious as for the flu no worries and your right if joints hurt and fever its flu as for the pink eye if the infection is new dont or you will catch it because its tricky some believe its air borne others say spread threw touch i would sleep on the couch. if your husband is taking meds for the pink eye for a few days then id say okay because infection would be clearing up by then so less likely to transmit it to you.

If you know two sick people like that, then you have to get them the hell out of your life! I cannot imagine what you must be dealing with, but the only thing to do is file for divorce and never let that slut see you again. You will be so happy in the long run, because payback for those idiots is gonna be a btch! They both have major problems, but your doing just fine when you get them out of your life FOR GOOD! I wish you all the luck.

You are likely to catch it sleeping in the same bed, but if you chose to sleep in the same bed I would suggest putting on a clean pillow case and using separate blankets tonight.

If you are going to get it, then you already are incubating it since youve been sleeping next to him for days while he incubated it and shared it with your sheets and you. At this point, work on making sure your own immune system is up to par. water, rest, vitamin c, reduce stress, dont worry.

well, you will run the risk of catching it, the flu and pink eye are both highly contagious
