Flu??: maybe you have influenza A.if you get tested soon enough,you could have taken tamiflu.but you may be beyond the window.So take OTC pain meds,tylenol (acetaminophen).drink lot of fluids,hot tea and chocolate.rest as much as you can.if fevers and weakness persist.do not wait more than 48 hours before you seek medical attention.
