So, Who's Had the (Insert Type Here) Flu?

[Elspode]

Selene and I are emerging from the throes of (apparently) H1N1. We both were felled on or about last Tuesday, and went to the doc on Wednesday. Her nasal swab came up positive for Type A, which includes H1N1. Mine was negative, but our symptoms were concurrent and identical...spiked fever early (I hit 103), muscle aches, respiratory nastiness, coughing, export quantities of sputum, headache, and blessedly...little to no gastric complications.

I'm not sure if it was a bonus that this crap hit on the eve of Thanksgiving, but it did mean that I only missed one day of work. Selene, who is asthmatic, has faired less well, missing three days of work, but making it to school all but one of those days. She is similarly behind the recovery curve, and is still taking breathing treatments at home. I'm just finishing up coughing up the accumulated scum.

So...who else has had the bona fide real deal flu so far?
