- Q: I was diagnosed with Type A Influenza yesterday. It’s kinda funny because I was his first patient to get diagnosed with the Flu in the middle of July. He said that im not as sick as he anticipated. I started coughing on the 20th I would say, and I went to the doctor a day later when the symptoms worsened. I cought the flu from my mom during my birthday on the 18th. He prescribed me TamiFlu and some nasty grape flavored syrup for my cough. I heard the flu lasts for 2 weeks and im starting to doubt that its true. Im already feeling alot better, my fever is gone and im not coughing that much anymore. My voice is a little weak though. Please guys! When can i finally get out of my house again!!!! If I stay here another day im gonna go crazy.
- A: generally 11 to 14 days.
