    Default Who Else Has The Flu?

    Because it's really starting to get old! I've had this fever for like, 4 days... it's gone down a couple of degrees though. My mom says I should see a doctor but I rreeaalllyyyy don't want to. I went to this site: http://www.cdc.gov/flu/professionals/diagnosis/
    and I guess it can last for 7 days... anyone else in the same boat? I haven't left the house this WHOLE time... I think I've seen the entire internet already... and I'm ROCKING at Neopets...

    Hmmm....... probably not the flu. By definition, influenza causes a nonproductive cough. Coughing up junk and losing your voice sounds like a viral pharyngitis. Hope you get better soon

    That sucks. I get a flu vaccine every year, but I missed it last year because we were asked to skip because of a national shortage. It was the worst I had EVER been sick. Take plenty of Tylenol to keep your fever under control and get plenty of sleep.

    Yeah, viral pharyngitis causes fever. Try some Robitussin DM for the junky cough. Viruses just take time to go away.

    The worst part for me is not being able to breath through my nose properly.

    I think my illness was work induced from the cigarette smoke on top of the cold weather.I don't smoke and can't see how some people still do even when they're sick.

    That could very well be the problem. Cigarette smoke makes everyone have a degree of reactive airway disease, which makes colds/upper respiratory tract infections last longer and feel worse.

    My bf had such a bad case of flu last week, he even spent one day in hospital. For some reason I just never seem to get sick anymore. I got an infection requiring antibiotics twice in the last 3 years - both right after moving to a different (and more polluted) environment. I am positive both were caused by the sudden change in environment because once I was over them, I was fine, like I'd built an immunity. I haven't had a cold or flu in a loooooong time! My immunity is rockin.

    I take lots of vitamins. Multis, calcium, C, E - have for years. I am positive this helps me a lot.

    I have never received the shot, and we give them out here at work for $8! I just hear bad things about reactions.

    I'm feeling better... That fever lasted for a few days and I have a lingering cough but I'm venturing out of the house and all. I never get the shot... I always figured I'd just take my chances... I lucked out this time but no one else I know caught it... So far! Bwahahahaha! (just kidding)

    Depends on each person's situation. Healthcare workers need to be immunized to prevent patient to patient spread.

    Just had the flu shot the other day. My arm was sore for about a day and that was it. Hopefully I won't get the flu now. This is the first time I got the shot. We'll see...
