Cold, Viral Infection, or H1N1??

We've had and still have something. What it is for sure, I don't know. It started last week with a cold. RJ had had a bad cough two weeks ago in which Jared soon caught. Not too long after that Savannah and I were both coughing like crazy. We pushed onward with our Halloween fun, ignoring the fact that this cold was seeming to get worse. Halloween night I came down with the chills. It took me several hours and Ibuprofen to get warm again. And then Sunday I was having high fevers, 102.5. Savannah and Jared were experiencing fevers as well but they never went over 101. Our cough had turned into a dry cough instead of a flemmy cough. So we went to the clinic. Or fevers were down by then with the help of drugs. The doc checked us for the flu and the results came back negative. He said that 45% of flu cases have come back negative, so he put Jared and I on Tamiflu anyway and thought that Savannah was on the mends of whatever was bugging her.
The next three days we were still drained. I was very nauseated and couldn't get much done in those days. Luckily, Jared had enough energy to do somethings to keep the apartment somewhat in order and the kids happy. The fevers were down and the chills were gone. Savannah's fever was in and out and her cough seemed to be getting worse. I almost took her in again on Tuesday but, she seemed to perk up again. Wednesday night we were all doing a little bit better. Thursday, Jared went back to work, I made it through the day with little trouble. So far, today has been much better. The cough is still around but everything else seems to have gone.

RJ never got it, but he had received the H1N1 vaccine in school. So maybe we did have a mild case of the swine flu? And Zachery thankful hasn't gotten sick at all, not even cold systems. Not sure how he was able to stay so healthy with all of us coughing everywhere and having to be in such close contact with me all the time. But I am not complaining at all. I just hope he continues to stay healthy. And if that was indeed the swine flu which we had, I can handle that. I am glad, for the most part, it is over and done with.
