Brief Answer:
Hello. This definitely sounds like the flu

Detailed Answer:
Hello. Since it's been over 48 hours since your symptoms began, prescription Tamiflu isn't likely to help much at this point, but you should see an urgent care doctor about that.

Otherwise it may take another three to five days for this to resolve.

Please let me know if you need more information.
