Swine Flu, anybody had it yet?
Our two primary school children both have underlying health issues which could mean if they catch the flu it could be more serious for them, as healthy adults we are not to concerned about ourselves but obviously more worried about passing it onto the kids, which is bound to happen if we catch it..
Was just wondering if anybody on BE has had it yet and how they felt etc? I have only had the flu once years ago but I remember I felt awful for a couple of days with sore throat, cough and the aches and pains etc.

I think the Bloke has had it over the last week, all the symptoms and apparently someone he worked with had it.In many cases people will just think they have a bad cold or mild flu.

Re: Swine Flu, anybody had it yet?
My kids have all had non stop heavy colds for the past month, they just keep going round in circles 
WHo's to say whether it's swine flu or colds. Some people have been going to work thinking they just have a heavy cold and ended up being diagnosed with swine flu!

Thats right, a lot of people find it is no worse than a cold, and at this time of year most Queenslanders come down with something.

Re: Swine Flu, anybody had it yet?
I've just come back from Florida, started with flu symptoms on the last day (3rd July) and have been rough since. It's not been diagnosed but more than likely I've got it! Just coming to the tail end of it now, I hope

Re: Swine Flu, anybody had it yet?
Me and the boy had swine flu last week. Here in Melbourne all flu is being linked to swine flu. Really it was quite a mild flu but is taking a long time to shift. We were a bit sorry for ourselves but better now.
I am back to work and all is back to normal.
