Nasty Flu doing the rounds in Australia.

My daughter had it all week, now I've got it. Green grey junk coughing up from my chest, constant sneezing, headaches and muscle aches, and now this morning it seems like I have these tiny electric pulses in my head that come and go. I'm off to see a doctor, but it might be tricky in our small town on a Sunday. A good friend of mine spent time this week in hospital suffering bird flu, but I haven't come in contact with her lately. I posted something on YC last night, and was told by a Canberra resident they are dubbing this strain the "Child Killer". Lovely...

Green junk suggests a bacterial infection, rather than the flu. It could be an infection that is secondary to the flu. Headache and chills can actually be a sign of a fever.

Yes, you should see a doctor. Sooner is better.
