Sounds like sleep apnea, does he snore? He may need a sleep study. Headache are cause from lack of oxygen. He might benefit from Provigil too, its a rather new albeit expensive drug worked wonders for me.

this could be chronic fatigue syndrome or Fibromyalgia. Your friend needs to see a doctor of rheumatology and get a complete examination.
A good nutrition program is very important, eating frequent small meals with some protein is very important in keeping the blood levels even And helping the energy levels .
Whole grains, seeds, nuts, yogurt, chicken, Turkey, organic beef, tofu, beans, eggs, natural cheese, cottage cheese, vegetables and fruits should form the base of your diet. Protein should be the building block of nutrition. Consuming fruits and vegetables in their most natural form provides the most minerals and vitamins. Green vegetables provide incredible minerals that our body needs to help absorb vitamins as well as necessary fiber. Fresh fruit provides minerals, fiber and natural waters that are absorbed on a cellular level.
Also have him take a good quality multivitamin twice daily.

He probably needs a multivitamin every day and perhaps more sleep as well. Some extra Vitamin C helps to boost the immune system.

May be due to post virus syndrome, just google it.
From a Chinese medicine view, the conditions are related to exhaustion of blood or vital energy, just like surgical individuals, need time to recover:

Since he had the flu make sure his Dr. checked for mono as it sounds like it very possibly could be. If left untreated can cause other health problems. This is only found by a blood test.

he is probably sick, but it very well be his immune system. He should take a few days off work and eat right.
