What Are The Possible Treatments For Flu?

I went to the doctor yesterday and she said I have the flu like symptoms so doctor prescribed me Tamiflu and antibiotics. They did some tests swab on throat, nose and blood work and results came negative. I took the medications but my cough got worse keep coughing every 5 seconds... Then my arm are hurting and when I stand up my leg (back of the knee) hurting and shake. I couldn t stand longer than 5 seconds. I have never felt this before and this is my first time to take the Tmiflu.... I am so worried very worried of how I am feeling. Please help

Hello

Please dont delay and meet your doctor as soon a possible as you may need supervised medical care. There is no specific treatment of flu , its just symptomatic and supportive, that is , we just aim to relieve your symptoms and not the infection. Please meet your doctor soon.
Thanks
