I got the flu t seems, Had a temp of 103 for 8 hrs, it broke this morning and now im feeling better but now...


but now my girlfriend isnt feeling so hot. is there anything to do? We are nowhere near a doctor....

The same thing happened to my boyfriend. He had a temp of 103.6 and I took him to a clinic. It was too late for him to do anything. I had symptoms 2 days later. I took Tamiflu, which unfortunately just by prescription. It only works within the first 24 hours of feeling symptoms. Since you're not near a doctor, the best thing I would suggest is what the doctor told my boyfriend- 2 tylenol and 2 ibuprofen every 4 to 6 hours to control the fever. As for the rest of the symptoms, I'd suggest dayquil and nyquil. Good luck!

No you just need to make your self and her comfortable and let it pass. Just drink as much as you can and try and eat healthy. And rest. But there is nothing a Doctor can do about the Flu It is A virus and needs to just run its course. and if you cant keep anything down and it has been a few days then u need to see a Doctor. Or if your fever wont down after a few days u need to see a doctor.
Good Luck......and Get Well

Is your girlfriend running a fever yet? If not then if you could not see a DR. then maybe you could see a Nurse practitioner to prescribe Tamiflu.This has to be taken within the first 24-36 hours to be effective .If getting somewhere is not possible then just try to keep the fever down by alternating between Tylenol and ibuprofen every 3 hours. The most important this is to drink as much fluids as possible to avoid dehydration. This is more important than trying to force yourself to eat. My granddaughter was just in the hospital due to this flu that is going around.
