I will be keeping you all in my thaughts for a speedy recovery.... Also what we should all heed by is when you are feeling ill STAY HOME it will lessen the spread,..... why would someone send there sick child to a sleepover.... ahhh some people don't use there head..... (I have a 15 year old and a 9 year old and worry all the time about others sending there kids to school sick...) Hope he feels better soon.

I am pretty sure my dd had it last week. Still recovering if you factor in the fatigue. Took her to the doctor, they aren't testing for it here, but he said she probably had it. It wasn't severe though, which is what they are seeing here in OH. All the symptoms, but nothing severe. She gets the regular flu every year (can't have the shot) and it is always a lot worse than H1N1 (for us anyway).

It sure is running rampant all over the country, entire schools have closed here they had so many people out. I hope your ds gets better quickly, he will be in my prayers.

my 7 yr old dtr had it - cough is still there at times

she was lethargic, tired, snotty, stuffed up, headache, achy, the fever only lasted 2 - 1/2 days. we took motrin and used a vaporizer. did go to doc to be sure she didnt have strep.

the doc said it will take about 10 days for her to back totally. she still gets sleepy.

hope you all move through it okay.

dh and i werent sick sick - just very tired. and a bit nasally/allergyish.

Hope your son get well soon. This is terrible for everyone. I have been sick for past 1.5 weeks, daughter was sick for about 2 days and now my son and husband are sick. Headache, achey, cough, runny nose. No fever though. Don't know if just bad colds or H1N1. I think I'll be calling doctor in the morning.

I hope he gets better soon

I hope your son recovers quickly. My son recently had H1N1 it was a fast acting flu. I don't want to frighten you at all but keep a close eye on him. My very healthy child had to go to ER for breathing treatments as he had major respiratory distress.
