Hi everyone! So last Monday (a week ago) my boyfriend and I went out of town for the day. On the way back, I began to feel shaky and had chills, but no fever. My throat and nose were a little uncomfortable but I woke up the next morning barely being able to move but still had no fever or congestion. I went to the doc in the box for fear of having the flu, and I tested negative. But the doctor did state the my symptoms did sound like the flu and they prescribed me tamiflu.
I took the tamiflu as directed, and called out of work for the entire week. (SIDENOTE: I have been having TERRIBLE anxiety when I am away from home. Scared that I will end up losing my job, but trying to fight through it for now.) I have only been out of the house three times since last Monday.
Anyway, I slept more than usual this past week and ate normal. No abnormal symptoms. I am on my last day of tami flu today, and now I am beginning to question if I even had the flu.
Will taking tamiflu prevent me from catching it if I didn't actually have it? I am scared that I will get it now that I've been out of work so long and karma will come bite me in the butt. I also wonder if my symptoms could have been anxiety related THINKING I had the flu? Idk. Any reassurance would be great!!
