Well, had it go around my home. My 5YO son tested posative for it last week, and we all here went down with "Flu-Like" symptoms. We did the considerate thing, STAYED HOME!!!! Now I can't say it was the H1N1 the rest of us got, since we weren't tested for it, but like I said, my son did. He's fine now and so is everyone else. Down for the count for a few days, then just trying to keep the fever down.
My advice is, if you get this virus or even the regular Flu, STAY HOME!!!! They will not treat the H1N1 any different than the regular Flu. All you will have accomplished is infecting others around you when you go out. Only seek medical attention if you get short of breath or the fever can't be controlled with Motrin/Tylonol. The reason I'm saying this is because I work at a hospital as an X-Ray Tech. We have had people in here all week wanting to be tested and treated for it. As I said before, there is no miracle cure. It will last at least 7 days, even with Tamiflu.
I may catch some flack on posting this, but i just wanted to throw it out there for you all. I've been through it, and came out on the good side of it. Yes, it sucks and kicks you in the butt for a week, but it is tollerable. Just be cautious if you need to go out.
