I might have the flu...?!


Question: last year i had the flu, and this year i got the flu shot.
well now, i feel exactly like the day before it got really bad last year.....

i am aching all over [kind of sore] and there is no way i could have gotten sore other than the flu because i havent worked out in forever. my throat is basically throbbing and my head is to. my fever is almost 100. im not sneezing or my nose isnt running. i also have chills.... something tells me it's not the flu but i dont know.
my parents do NOT believe me that this is how i felt last year. they're like "youre fine, go to school". it sucks and i can't bear it. could it be the flu?

Yes, and did the symptoms come suddenly?? If they did come sudden (3-6 hours) That is almost definatley the flu. I would tell your mom take you to the doctor, because they can do a flu test (They Take a cotton swab and run it up into your nose, a bit uncomfortable, but It's Just for a Second) If you have the flu, they can give you antivirals to speed up recovery, and to keep other people around you from getting sick. In the Meantime, here are some things that might help you feel better:
-Pain Reliever like Ibeprophen
-Throat Drops
-Throat Spray to numb your throat
-Fluids (Avoid Citrus, as it will irritate throat)
-Tea with honey
-Rest
-Dress in Layers
-A good book or movie
Another reason I think you have the flu is because of the body aches, sore throat, and the fever/chills Check this website for more info http://www.flufacts.com Good Luck and Feel Better!!!!!!!!!!!
