Anyone else had it? Three days in now and this one is kicking me harder than any flu in the past (today is the first day I have been outta bed)

Just started the old Tamiflu, so wonder if that's why I'm outta bed?

Hope no one else in the family gets it as it really sucks

My sister had it and it didnt really hit her too bad, she slept for a couple days but was still working from home.

Everyones different, swine flu aint nearly as bad as its made out to be and it aint the first time its been about either. Just be careful with the tamiflu, side effects etc

I had it ten days ago and still have not got shot of it fully yet,

headaches, high temps and a cough i cant kick....

i got Tamiflu, but after reading on the web that H1N1 was mutating and Tamiflu was not working in some cases i stopped taking it and just rode it out...

I still dont feel a 100% though...

Glenn cruised it and never go tit, and Casey got it but very mildly...

Hope your feeling much better soon Karl..its nasty

I made the mistake of trying to stay at work, and had customer complaints hat a flu ridden engineer was spreading his disease, lol, finding myself 35 miles from home with cold sweats and a dizzy head was not fun.

I've been fortunate enough not to have it. How aare you finding the Tamiflu? I'v heard reports that the side-effects are worse than the flu itself!

I seem to be lucky, the Tamiflu is superb for me thus far.........no obvious side effects but they don't half make me feel better. I can tell when their effect is wearing off.
