How did you cope? Well, when I had flu, I found it was just best to stay in bed all day, watch tv, eat nuts and seeds as I found it hard to eat anything and to drink, so preferrably non salty dry food. Also, get cooling pads or a flannel and a bucket of water because you want to keep your temperature cool, and your temperature will dry out the cloth. Also, you need to rest afterwards.

What do you recommend for it? Apparently paracetomol will not help with the temperature, so don't bother with it.

Do you know anybody with swine flu? Yeh, my brother had it, and one of my best friends. A few year 8s came back from a school trip in france with it, and my HOY had it.

Co codamol is only a pain relief drug, it works well against flu like symptoms, obviously if you abuse it you risk becoming addicted and so on. It's only part paracetamol and part codeine, nothing to extreme. :)

I literally thought I was dying when I took two co codamols without any food in my stomach, puking, shivering, passed out, very distressing. Quite funny though now you think back. :P

Trust me, if you get the full blown flu you feel like killing yourself. I was overdosing on it (not majorly just the odd one or two) But yeah I did and always have eaten before I take any medication unless stated otherwise.

Just that my dad has to use Cocodamol (and Trammadol amongst others) sometimes cos hes usually in immense pain with his perma-broken pelvis :)

I think ive got it now, not sure :[
