Can you get the flu two times in a row?


I had the flu a few weeks ago and it took me 2 weeks to get rid of the congestion. Now I have a cold, but I am starting to feel flu like symptoms.

Definitely. I had it 2 times one year and I was never so miserable. The second time started about a week after I thought it was over the first time.

yes has happened to me and lot of other people i know spec this year

yes... 2 weeks ago. i had flu 2 times in a row. flu always is consequenced with a pain in throat because the snut goes down and sticks to throat.... then only hot drinks will melt it down... i had flu 2 times in a row when i grew suspicious to get outa the hot shower to see how my body looks like in the mirror of my room nude

Yes, because there are different strains of flu going around.

i suppose so..

Certainly. You could either relapse due to weakened immune system unable to fight off the bug you already had, or, you could catch a separate strain that your system hasn't created antibodies for yet. There's many flu viruses out there, not just one.
