Have Pain In Throat, Leg And Ll Over The Body. Took Medication Just For Cold. Can It Be Flu?
I feel terrible, i wonder if I have the flu, started 3 days ago, pain in my troath, then, pain in my legs, all over my body, I was cold, hot, uneasy and sneezing. It got worse and then worst, I am very tired, cannot sleep properly, my nose is dripping like an open faucet, it is red and hurts, I have to breath thru my mouth and now I have a cough that does let me be, it comes very strong and after sometime goes away and then comes back... I have been taking over the counter cold medication. I went to work yesterday but it took all my energy and I do not think I can do it until I get over this. Is this the flu? Should I call in sick for at least a week? Should I go to my family doctor?
