Hi,
Welcome to healthcare Magic!
The pregnancy test you can do right now to exclude pregnancy as the cause for your symptoms.
Urine pregnancy home kit is available at medical store.
The flu symptoms need a close assessment by a local physician after a close clinical examination.
You should have rest and ensure nutrition and hydration as well.
I hope the advise would be informative and useful for you.
Take Care!

Welcome to HCM.
It is very early to say for pregnancy.
Go for urine pregnancy test at least after 7th day of missing period.You can also confirm it by blood hcg level and USG.
Go to your doctor for treatment of flu.
If you are pregnant than consult your gynecologist for further management.
