Hmm. Four "no" responses in front of the "health-food store." I'm shocked...

It really is a little too early to be getting a flu shot now. I understand that the media hypes but kids, lets not get the panties in a bunch. Most doctors will say wait until mid-late October

I actually had the flu last week. I still have a little junk in my lungs. Hopefully, this means that I won't get sick this winter. Nothing like getting it over early.
The funny thing is I looked up Swine flu and regular flu and I couldn't figure out what the difference between the two were. Exact same symptoms.
So, how is a person suppose to know if they have just the normal everyday flu that most of us have had a half a dozen times in our life and swine flu? And just why is Swine flu considered so deadly? From what I read, most people recover from it.
Anyhoo, the answer to the question, is "Yes, I have"

Dena,
To answer your question, the swine flu has the word SWINE in front of the word flu, and the everyday flu has nothing in front of the word flu.
Does that clear it up for you?
