    Thanks for that. This is how i have been feeling and all started with seriously bad sneezing and runny nose. Have constant temp but am able to function for a little while before i need a rest/ sleep. thought perhaps i was having a 'low mood 'with the wanting to sleep alot. Just worried that my special needs son does not get it too bad.
    I am glad to say not everyone seems to be getting really bad symptoms. So do not worry too much.

    What about you can not get tamiflu, here in Canada they gave it in the last resort! The tamiflu supposely lower your symptoms... grrrr...
