I m 68, always had excellent health, but even with flu shot I ve come down with the flu. Going on 7 days, fever down to 100, cough still here, very tired and have brownish, strong smelling urine. I ve stayed hydrated (about 50+ oz per day) Husband says doctor prime... I m not sure I need that

Hi,


Thanks for your question on HCM



I do understand your pain and discomfort



"As" per your history is concerned you should not be worried at all. Do a CBC and check your urine for pus cell. If bacterial infection suspected tell your doctor to add antibiotics and if viral infection then no antibiotics is required. Take anti histamine+cough syrup for 3 -4 days. Do warm saline gargle 3 times per day. Please record body temperature every 6 hours and record it up to 72 hours. Further medications will be added after urine report.Add a multivitamin everyday at bedtime.



Hope that helps
