when it's the flu or something else? I need some real advice.

take 2 asprin an call me tommrow

depends on your symptoms, how long you've had it.. stuff like that.. it helps to not be so vague

see a doctor......bad stuff goin aroud this year.You look fine in your pic????

i've been running a fever between 101 and 103 for a week, taking tylenol and advil alternately. can't keep the fever down. no other real symptoms except a tense neck, headackes due to the fevers i think, achy muscles, lack of energy

what r your symptoms? Is the flu going around where u are? how long have u been sick? it depends on a lot of things

The flu can run for weeks, but I think it's best to call your doctor in the morning and at least talk to a nurse.

I had a temp like that for 2 1/2 weeks.. 4 weeks total of being sick.. best of luck...

its been going around

yea plan on calling the doc tomorrow. I'm so tired of not feeling well. i work in schools. Everything goes around there.

It's never good to run a high fever for long... you can call any hospital and ask a nurse for advice

sorry, hope you feel better soon

Go to the doctor, or health clinic if you dont have insurance.
Even the ER if you have to. The tense neck and headaches tells
me that you need to be seen.
Make sure it is- just the flu.

Hope you feel better soon.

yea that's my plan for tomorrow
i'll be calling first thing in the morning to make an appointment

she said she needs real advice, don't be a moron.

I got my butt kicked royally a couple weeks ago from something, and other people I talked to said it lasted a really long time for them. I think what I was taking really helped knock it out faster.

Here's what I take:
Airborne - usually gets me well pretty quickly
Echinacea - helps rebuild your immune system while you're sick
Garlic - a natural antibiotic
Licorice Root - soothes sore throat

Don't eat/drink anything with sugar or alcohol, and don't smoke.

I hope you feel better soon... I'll send good thoughts your way

The flu symptoms are very distinctive from a cold. If you feel very sick is more likely to be the flu. There is so much of that going on. It will be better to see your doctor. Feel better...

i learned going to the dr takes care of the problem quicker.

Ohh you must be one of those lucky ones with money and perhaps insurance

Drink plenty of fluids. Coffee/Tea doesn't count because of the caffeine.
Water, Fresh fruit juices.
If you have to take medicines which you have at home, Normal aspirin every four hours.
If your back aches as well, and your nose is blocked, you can use Japanese mint oil in a hot bath and/or as an inhalent.
Just before you go to bed, drink a glass of hot milk with honey in it. If you feel tired, stop what you are doing, lie down and rest.If the symptoms persist longer than three days then you shoud see your doctor if you haven't already done so.

Get well soon.
