What are the symptoms of swine flu? Could I have it?
Well, here’s the deal.
My neighbor is an a farmer and he doesn’t like using chemicals, so to get rid of bugs he "fertilizes" his land by pouring truckloads of pig crap on it, and it’s so bad that from spring to fall I can’t even open the window because that stench isn’t just lethal to bugs! He doesn’t give a s..t about what the law says and he will probably keep on doing that until he dies!
Now, yesterday I was fine, but today I woke up feeling awful! I was up ever since 4am and I couldn’t even move because if I had, I would had thrown up. I have a pretty serious fever which tipped at 38.8C (101.84F) and now I can keep it stable at 38.2C (100.76F). Furthermore I’m really weak and it took me 2 hours just to gather enough energy to get out of bed and eat. And like that wasn’t enough I hurt all over really bad.
Could I have swine flu or is it some other illness?
A big thank you in advance to all who answer this question.
My country hasn’t had any swine flu infections so far.

swine flu is like a big bad flu… but due to the fact that you have a high temperature, i suggest you go to the doctor because it is one of the principal symptoms. i live in mexico and they told us that if u have flu symptoms go to the doctor immediately.
swine flu is 100% curable, so don’t panic.

call your doctor, if you have enough energy to ask this question then surely you can make a phone call and ask him/her about it.

Get yourself tested just in case.
It sounds like your getting the mild symptons. The quicker your results come, the quicker you can recover

same as seasonal flu. see your doctor if concerned

The only way you can catch swine flu is from someone who has it, not from pigs or from pig crap. If your country hasn’t had any swine flu infections so far then you don’t have swine flu.
