Influenza symptoms/experiences?

by Symptom Advice on February 16, 2011

so i dont think ive ever had influenza virus (only the stomach bug and colds) so i was wondering what the symptoms are, how long do they last and do you VOMIT with it?

Im talking about influenza, not the stomach flu which technically isnt a flu.

i don't know i had never had a really bad case of it i just felt a little sick i don't know why i am taking flu shots i never got the flu that bad anyways

You cant really tell the difference from flu and stomach virus. they are pretty much the same. There is no cure for any virus and you may or may not throw up. You will have a fever most likely and you should drink plenty of water and juice. and get rest, lots of it. It can last a few days or weeks depending on your age. Eldery people and children can die from a Flu because their bodies cant handle the virus. Normal adults just need a few days to rest and drink fluids. if you are throwing up nonstop and cant keep any foods down then go to a hospital because you may need to be hooked up to an IV so you dont die.
