Anyone else suffering from flu like symptoms right now?

i am so achy...i don't know why but my legs hurt a lot for no reason. i have a 101temperature and it's not going away. i took dayquil cold/flu twice already. my head hurts..it has been this way all day. can anyone relate? is there anything else i can do to lower the fever?Anyone else suffering from flu like symptoms right now?
If your skin feels a bit dry then u can take asprin/ paracetemol to lower ur temperature, if u just feel abit sick at the moment then maybe it's best to wait a few days. Ur body has it's own way of fighting the flu and other illnesses. That's what fever does. It has 4 stages: first you start to feel unwell, second you start to feel cold and shiver, third is when u feel a bit better but ur skin feels hot and dry, finally is when you sweat alot and that's when u know the fever has broken and your well on the way to recovery. Third and fourth stage is the best time to lower temp. until then rest, eat healthy and keep up the fluids( extremely important).
Eat some soup(My favorite is tomato) and get to bed early.
