If your DC had influenza....symptoms?

L's pedi thinks he has influenza but they didn't swab or anything to confirm that theory.

What symptoms did your DC have with influenza?

Oh - and did they get the flu shot?  (L did.)

knock on wood, they haven't had it this year.  Flu symtoms are very similar to cold symptoms, just much worse.  Nathan had it last year, they did swab his nose and he did have the flu shot.

DS had influenza b which is mostly just a fever from hell with headache & general BLAH.  Yes he had his flu shot, yes they swabbed him.  Regular influenza is basically a bad cold gone insane.
