Ugh, just yesterday i came down with what i think is a cold.(Runny/Stuffy nose, Watery eyes, Sore throat, etc) My parents let me stay home from school today.
But im worried i might have the Flu. (cause, I really hate throwing up)
=(
I had a pretty big headache a little bit ago, i took some Excedrin, and it helped. But right now my stomach is kind of upset... =\
I've been drinking water all day long..so... o__o;;
Do you think i might have the Flu...?
I reeaaaalllly dont want to throw up.... >____<;;
~Please help?? ;___;

Do you have a fever?
Probably not the flu unless you have a high fever. Why don't you cut off the nausea before it hits and take some pepto bismol.?
Don't take Excedrin on an empty stomach.
I think it's just a cold, too, but if you get a high fever between now and a week from now, go to the dr's office promptly.

well, right now the only symptom youre missing is probably a fever!
i had the flu last year and i had a fever (and all of your symptons) for a whole week!
if you feel like your body is burning and yet youre still so cold, and you feel so weak and youre not even hungry... then i think you might have it.
right now, you should really drink alot of fluids (sprite and water)
drink pepto or malox.
pop in a tylenol PM.
and hit the sack.
in the morning, if you wake up with a fever or feeling worse then you might almost definitely have it!
you should really see a doctor, too (since im not one... however, i get extremely extremely sick at least once a season so im pretty experienced ^^)
i really hope you get better.
as my mom always says : "youre only as sick as youre letting yourself be"... though, i think thats a stupid saying...
well anyway,
sleep well and remember to take the meds!
and eat even when not hungry!
as for throwing up...look at it from a posotive side!
you can stay home... (unles syou dont like that...)
get well soon ^^

check your temperature. if it is above 100, you have the flu. the average persons body temperature is 98.5 degrees Farenheit. find out your body temperature and all will be known!
hope you feel better! :3
