I'm in the process of transferring Health Insurance, so I can't really go to the doctor...any suggestions for recommended over the counter meds would be awesome! Thanks.

Symptoms:
1. i am hot to the touch (others'), but I feel cold. fever?
2. my throat is on FIRE!
3. I cough incessantly, but no congestion or runny nose...
4. frequent and enduring headaches
5. i hurt (especially my head) when touched...i have this nervous habit where i run my fingers through my head...this hurts too!
6. two days ago i kept getting dizzy, but that hasn't occured in the past day

Thanks again. I rarely get sick, and its been so long since I've had the flu, I can't remember what its like. I've never had a flu shot...

It has been said on the news over the last day when talking about pandemics, that they last 4 months. Does anyone know why this is. I would have thought that they last as long as they last, and could not be defined in time.

I mean the Avian virus H7 has been in Norfolk before.

Some ideas. An immigrant Starling sneaked in the Turkey prison to snatch some free food and passed on the virus.
Came with imported eggs or poultry trade movements.

Could not find the entry section for Zoonosis.

Ok I have already asked but I have improved syptoms. So I have had a fever all day in school, came home went to bed freezing even thought it was warm, my fever has gotten worse and so have the chills. My sore throat has also rapidly increased in pain but not extreme yet. Last time I had a bad fever of 103 and my aches and pains didn't develop until about 12 am the next day.

Okay so this morning in class my forehead was very warm and it progressed into a fever, but I feel very, very cold as if I am outside in freezing weather, my siblings are ok and do not think it is cold. I also my throat hurts slightly but not strep throat hurting. Could I be comming down with something?

If the symptons aren't showing yet like sore throat, tiredness and all that can you still spread it. My boyfriend doesn't have it and I thought he gave it to me, all I can think who gave it to me is this guy I saw before him, that I shared a drink with some of his friends I'm thinking one of them but if u can spread it then I'm out of ideas.
