It's hit our fifth grade particularly hard and I'm scared stiff I'm gonna get it. <br /><br />I hope K is on the mend QUICKLY.Rachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09317328366288947798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8181941897289258428.post-19252695327341158522009-10-16T18:48:39.906-04:002009-10-16T18:48:39.906-04:00I'm certainly not a doctor, but have been read...I'm certainly not a doctor, but have been reading up on flu because I am both a germaphobe and a hypochondriac. :) <br /><br />They are calling any flu cases this early "likely H1N1" because it is a tad too early for the regular seasonal flu. (Historically speaking.)And you don't have to have a fever for days on end or at all for it to be H1N1 or any type of flu. That said, the difference between cold and flu is usually determined by how quickly it comes on (you feel a cold coming, but the flu hits you quick) and the level of fever (under 102 for cold, over 102 for flu.) Anyway, I hope she feels better and I hope the rest of you fend it off as well. <br /><br />Dr. Ak (heehee)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8181941897289258428.post-55659389553491506922009-10-16T14:48:53.311-04:002009-10-16T14:48:53.311-04:00I agree that H1N1 is similar to seasonal flu, but ...I agree that H1N1 is similar to seasonal flu, but it has been in SEASON for almost 8 months now. It is a pandemic flu, as it is eventually going to effect all countries. Pandemic sounds bad, but it just means the way it spreads, not that its worse than seasonal.<br /><br />That said, the schoolkids have been getting hit hardest with it. Seasonal flu generally hits the old and infants the hardest.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08087323964849168183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8181941897289258428.post-61743505760314665942009-10-16T14:24:59.983-04:002009-10-16T14:24:59.983-04:00Yikes, sounds awful.

I'd have my dr by the neck if that happened. <br /><br />Maybe next weekend she will be up for the movie?Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05618231128475803247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8181941897289258428.post-2935055181786663572009-10-16T11:14:06.885-04:002009-10-16T11:14:06.885-04:00Oooh, I would be so stinkkin mad at your doctor. ...Oooh, I would be so stinkkin mad at your doctor.
