The symptoms of H1N1 flu can be difficult to notice. One of the reasons for this is because the flu symptoms could be similar to the seasonal flu. The major difference is the fact that the severity and length of time before you get over the flu could be worse and longer.
It's good to know what you're up against because once you understand what to look for you'll feel less uneasy and can take precautions to keep yourself healthy and recover faster. In fact the H1N1 or swine flu is one of those flus that we have seen before, but a very long time ago.
The symptoms of H1N1 flu could include for example, coughing, fever, and other sorts of pains that you will feel throughout your body. The only way to really tell if it is the H1N1 flu is for a doctor to take a swab of your mouth and send it out to a lab for analysis.
We all have had some type of flu in our lives. The good thing about our bodies is that we're able to readjust from these flus and fight off the next one when it comes along. So, another symptom to look out for is diarrhea. This could be one of the worst feelings as you will almost feel like you have to be stuck to the bathroom all day long. The biggest issue with diarrhea is that you will become dehydrated, which in itself is a serious problem.
Keep in mind that the symptoms of H1N1 can be mild as well, but if it's a serious problem, then the symptoms could also include dizziness, vomiting and other types of chest pains. These chest pains could make it feel like you were having some type of heart attack. So, be careful and make sure you get tested right away.
