FLU: If you have the Flu hydrate well w water, herbal teas, soup or juice. Drink sufficiently to have pale to light yellow urine. You can use pain relievers like Tylenol (acetaminophen) or NSAID’s. Rest A LOT! Sounds like it is too late for antiviral medications (Tamiflu, Relenza, Flumadine). If sxs don't start resolving or you have temp > 104 or difficulty breathing - seek med care.
