Thats the same that happened with us!
I was a carrier and I only feel sore and ache and headache,
my boyfriend (whose account this is) seems like he's dying with
fever, nausea etc.....
thoght I think our roomie is sick, guess no one gave him an immunity
lol
I added my friend. Don't know for sure if it is swine or not. Think he self diagnosed it Monday night at work... but he's sick anyway.
Hope you guys get better!
Added myself on there, mine was worst Sunday night, seemed to come down with it Saturday or earlier as thats when symptoms started but Sunday night my whole body ached, had a migraine and a severe cough and complete lack of appetite. After a good nights sleep I felt better but I am still coughing and running a fever with a slight headache.
I used so much hand sanitizer that my hands smelled like a hospital room.
Unfortunately, I had too much tipple at the bar crawl and was in "kissy-drunk" mode for much of the evening. Those poor souls who got more than a peck on the cheek are probably screwed.
went to pax all 3 days. started feeling sick sunday night, monday woke up feeling like shit... went to the docs once I got back home and it turns out I have a bad case of bronchites. yippee... just what I've always wanted........
My friends and I all got sick by sunday, however i know only 1/4 of us got the actual swine flu as far as i know it's only the one unfortunate soul that has a fever While I've only got a cough, a lot of throat gunk, but no fever! Still I want a pax pox shirt or at least a button.
I had a fever of 104 degrees on Monday, I found that by staying in bed and drinking lots of tea, orange spice because other make your throat dry, and sleeping made feel much better the next day with 98.1 degree temperature. If anyone has some good tips on how to get rid of this scratchy throat, please let me know.
you are doing everything right. the couggh will probably turn into a flemmy one.. i recommend drinking WHITE tea. the other teas the aggro'd your cough had caffine, and white tea has none plus the most antioxydents of all teas.
stay AWAY from fruit juices!
a losenge will temp restore your throat but there is no way to completely suppress it. if you don't talk too much it should keep the coughing to a minimum.
i had a fever of 102.6.... ugh XD
Thank you for suggesting white tea. Unfortunately, out of the 27 different types of tea I have on hand (including chocolate) I don't have any white tea on hand so I'll be sure to pick some up tomorrow.
this stuff
is fantastic for sore throats and coughs without making your tongue feel or taste all funky like lozenges can
Khoo said that the reported case came from a Boston-based game developer, one who confirmed contracting the H1N1 virus with a doctor. That developer contacted PAX officials with confirmation of the infection.
Nooooo, not Harmonix!
Also I've been taking this strange mexican medicine a friend gave me called XL-3. The box is entirely in spanish and looks like it's housing some chemical, but god DAMN it works.
I think this is my first post and I get to bitch about getting sick, yay! I got the nose swab test, which was extremely uncomfortable, and they say yes I have the flu - not a lot of achiness but I have all of the other Super Fun symptoms. Work is all freaked out and I get to stay home probably until next week, which is good because I feel like craaap.
Of course, all of my sick days are paid and I can use this time to catch up on my video game playing, so it's not the worst thing to ever happen to me.

feeling better today. But had been stuck in bed for about 3 days.
Aaaaah, the luxury of being unemployed.
Can't wait to get better so I can start saving up for next years PAX.
Fear Not, I'm a GOOD PlagueFairy .I shall keep the Piggy Flu away next year!
I havent felt anything yet so i think i am in the clear. although when ever anyone tries to get some food or drink off me I just say i was at PAX and might be infected with the PAX1N1 and they back off.
I invented an awesome new drink, airborne and gin! I need a pax related name for it though. It's suprisingly good considering I hate gin.
Oh that's simply amazing. :^: Does the citrusy Airborne taste come though the gin pretty strongly? I've been known to mix gin and gatorade, I'd imagine it taste a bit like that. I vote you call it "The Pre-PAX Planning".

For anyone who is feeling the horrible side effects of the PaxFlu, here is an AMAZING cough medicine that TASTES good and WORKS
NIN JIOM
Herbal Cough Syrup and Expectorant (THIS STUFF IS AMAZING, can be found at any London Drugs and most pharmasaves)
If you are alone, dying at home with no way to get medicine, I would suggest the following:
Honey for your chapped lips
warm lemonaid sweetened with honey for your throat
Pepermint tea for your stomach
And if all else fails, gargle salt water 3 times a day. (or more if you want to get better faster)

Oh trust me! H1N1 is MUCH preferred to SARS.
You don't want SARS.
And SARS wasn't our fault..... Blame China!
