Fever, aching all over, sometimes migraine-type headaches, sometimes nausea and vomiting--even diarrhea. Sometimes congestion, cough, and other cold-type symptoms. You may become extemely tired.
Antibiotics don't help with flu (as they don't with common cold).
You do need a fever reducer (tylenol, advil, alleve, etc). OR
Try Thera-Flu or DayQuil and NightQuil--as they treat flu symptoms and have the fever-reducer in them. You might want to have Pepto Bismol around for stomach distress.
Drink herbal teas, green tea, lots of water, juice, soup, jello, etc.
Keep away from milk and dairy products
I hope you feel better really soon. Next year, try to get a flu shot--I got one for the first time in October, and this is the first year I haven't come down with it.
