Flu Caution

There's a very virulent strain of respiratory flu out now, and it can get very serious very quickly.  Advice from the hospital website to keep in mind -

Go to physician if you can't keep fever below 100 (after taking tylenol/motrin) and if a persistant/productive cough with nausa and vomiting. Go to the Emergency Department if you are short of breath or having difficulty breathing, if your temperature is over 101 and if you experience nausa ...and vomiting for greater than 24 hours.

I could say scarier things that I heard at the hospital, but I'll leave it at this - pay attention to the flu!!  Wash your hands a lot!!



Thinking of you people I love so much.
