    Apparently the tablets make you feel worse anyway and, on average, only make you get better around a day sooner than you would have done anyway. My little brother had it a couple of months ago (I say little, but he's... 17, I think) and he wouldn't take the Tamiflu stuff because of that. He was fine after a few days.

    Get better soon! :kiss:

    a day better is essential for me, im missing so much work at uni :/ and maths builds itself on previous lectures, so im screwed (to put it nicely)

    took my first tablet, no side effects as of yet. If the first results in no side effects then the whole 5 days should be fine apparently.

    And no i don't have a tail :funky:

    Do you remember Pinocchio? There was that bit where all the boys got drunk and turned into donkey type things. That's what I always think of when I think of Swine Flu. In fact, that part of the film was particularly screwed up, if I remember correctly...

    I never even heard of it. (I actually heard of it but didn't heard of any case older than 5 months)

    Here it's clean no measures no nothing.

    I wonder why you people are worrying so much.

    yeh tbh i think i either got a light case or it's not that bad.
    The worst thing if anything was the ACHING of my arms, I couldnt lift them higher than there natural position, i had to move one over to the other and drag it up.

    Im like 50% recovered now, arms are still like crap and cough and runny nose and temperature, but feeling better.
    3days left till i can go uni (but ima be bad and leave house today, i needa go tesco :/)

    My school was canceled for a few days because 2 people had swine flu.
