It is important that as swine flu spreads, you know the symptoms of the disease so you can recognise it in yourself and others at an early stage.
Please read this page and consider your symptoms carefully before using the National Pandemic Flu Service mentioned below.
So far, most swine flu cases have been mild, with symptoms similar to those of seasonal flu. Only a small number of people have had more serious symptoms.
If you or a member of your family has any of the following symptoms and a temperature of 38°C or above, you may have swine flu.
The typical symptoms are:
a sudden fever (a high body temperature of 38°C/100.4°F or above), and
a sudden cough.
Other symptoms may include:
headache,
tiredness,
chills,
aching muscles,
limb or joint pain,
diarrhoea or stomach upset,
sore throat,
runny nose,
sneezing, or
loss of appetite.
I have mixed feelings about swine flu. A week home could clear a lot from my backlog.Mutsumi said:I'm surpised I didn't catch swine flu. I was working in a DIY superstore at when the outbreak was at its worst but no customers have passed it on to me.
That's how I look at it too, but you gotta take the not feeling well into account. I'd hate to be so bad that I couldn't even enjoy some anime. O_O Nightmare!chaos said:I have mixed feelings about swine flu. A week home could clear a lot from my backlog.
I could even marathon Urusei Yatsura and finish it in a week =D

That's why I say I have mixed feelings about it. I want to marathon on my backlog of DVD's, I don't want the fever, dyarrhea, pain and the other symptons associated with the flu though.Voddas said:That's how I look at it too, but you gotta take the not feeling well into account.
