Flu Question

I've never had the flu. Yesterday, i felt awful all day and pretty much layed in bed the entire day. I have a fever of 100, no appetite and my biggest complaint is that my back is sore. Overall, i just felt crappy with no energy.

Do those sound like flu symptons...i'm so paranoid..i feel a little better this morning, but my back still aches.

When I got the flu it came on out of nowhere. The night before I started to get this scratch in my throat and coughed a little. Next morning woke up with horrible chills, high fever, and still coughing. Dr said it was definitely the flu.
I think you should go to the dr anyway because of the fever. Could be sign of an infection. Play it safe.
Hope you feel better soon!

whenever I get the flu, I get the chills with it. watch your temperature to make sure it doesnt get too high because then its very dangerous for the baby. stock up on tylenol just in case it gets worse at night.

When I've had the flu, I had at least 102-103 fever, chills and lots of body aches. It really stinks. I hope you didn't get the flu. Feel better! Chat Icon

Re: Flu Question

Yes, flu for me was accompanied with much higher fevers...102-103. Honestly if you are running a fever for 2 days, I'd give a call into your OB or even general practitioner tomorrow...

Re: Flu Question

I think the flu is generally accompanied by a very high fever. Sounds like you have a bad cold (I have one too - it sucks!).

Since you have a vacation coming up, I'd try to get into the doctor today / tomorrow.
