I just recovered from Type A H1N1 symptoms :
- fever
- cough
- sore throat
- body aches
- headache
Yes, the symptoms are very much similar to regular human flu's because by the name itself, Type A H1N1 Influenza is just another flu. From what we've heard in news where the number of cases increased daily, it can be said that anyone (in Malaysia, specifically) could be infected with the virus.
Many of us freaked out when this virus becomes the no. 1 cause of death these days. When the fact is, many people even died from the normal seasonal flu and some suffered badly for the rest of their life from high fever at a very young age. Truth is, any type of flu is as dangerous as Type A H1N1. So my advice is, if you're having flu symptoms - fever, cough, sore throat, etc. - do not take it lightly. Get early treatment. Do not wait for the test result to confirm whether you are a H1N1 positive or otherwise. I have a friend whose sister was diagnosed as a normal patient with regular flu and later when they checked at another medical centre, she was confirmed H1N1 positive. Imagine how many people have been infected with the virus while waiting for her status to be confirmed. And why didn't the first doctor detect the virus?
The thing is, we have to keep ourselves protected all the time. Just because the doctor says it is a 'normal flu', we should not shove it off our shoulders. So aside from putting on your face masks and avoiding crowded places, don't neglect the most powerful 'army' who can fight those merciless viruses which is your own body's immune system. Make sure it's strong enough to face all the enemies coming from any angle. How, you must say? Of course, one of the ways is to consume our special Yung Kien LingZhi which has been researched and tested to be able to strengthen our immune system and protect our liver so that we are ready to fight any disease!
