My doctor told me last month to not worry about what kind of flu I had. He said swine flu wasn't as nasty as the regular guys. It did take a little longer to go away than usual. Since he's known me for 10 years (and my MS), I get anything the threatens the lungs, we attack with mega antibiotics! No taking chances with pneumonia.

A co-worker got knocked out of commission for a week last week. His doc told him the same thing - don't worry about type of flu.
