swine flu?!!

[Muffins]

Ok so yesterday I wasnt feeling well (coughing up stuff, fever, cold) now today I feel alot worse even though I got about 9 hrs sleep.

And I looked at some of the swine flu symptoms and those were some of them! Im probable overreacting though... infact I think the governments are idiots to say its a pandemic but yeah... I feel pretty scared right now. :(

dont worry about it.

Youre fine.
I know a TON of people that are sick with a cold and other flu like symptoms atm (even me), I don't think you have the swine flu.

If you get to the point where you can't function though, then you should go to the doctor just in case

In all of australia theres only been 3 deaths. dont sweat it. swine flu and regular flu are very similar

Thanks guys, Im sure im just overreacting. My brother inlaw had the same thing but he took some coughmedicine and hes better now so i'll probable do the same.

Drink plenty of fluids, eat full balanced meals and get plenty of rest. Go to a pharmacy and tell them your symptoms and they will recommend the best medicine for you. Take that, if symptoms do not improve, then book an appointment with your doctor.

A lot of people who read symptoms of things may convince themselves that they have something when they don't.
