Do i have the H1N1 or swine flu disease?
i have a temperature of 99.5 headache sore throat coughing and ive had muscle aches over the past few days but it might of been from football. i looked on the website and it said that it will go away from most people without medical care. I am 13 5' 7" and 125 pounds if that helps thanks

Your age, height, and weight won't have an impact on whether or not you have swine flu. Your symptoms do sound like you have it though--the only thing missing is chills. If you get sudden chills that's also another symptom. I would go to the doctor if it doesn't get better within 3-5 days because I developed pneumonia after I recovered from swine flu and you definitely don't want to be sick for another week! Good luck I hope you feel better!

My son had the swine flu and yes it just passed like any normal flu.
Drink plenty of fluids and get enough rest.
Swine flu is generally only a problem when there is another underlying condition.
You will need to visit your doctor though, as in Australia it was classed as a pandemic and you need to be in quarantine (in your home) for at least a week so as not to spread the disease.

By the way, H1N1 is a name they gave the swine flu because people started being scared of pigs. So, it's the same thing. Alot of people are getting regular flu, and docs are telling them it's swine. Where are your parents, I can't give much advice for you, but if you're real worried, go see a doc. Usually both flus, I'm told, go away fairly quickly, so whether you get swine or regular yearly flu, you'll probably be fine. Don't worry too much, Worry makes things worse, and talk to an adult to help and make you feel better. Good Luck!
