What does nasal spray do to your capillaries?
It entirely depends on what is in the nasal spray. If it is saline spray, then it doesn't really do anything to the capillaries per se. If it is a decongestant then it causes constriction of the capillaries (which will tend to open up the nasal airway). If it is H1N1 influenza spray, then it uses your capillaries to deliver virus to the rest of your body.

How is H1N1 diagnosed and how long does it take to get results?
The swine flu is diagnosed by taking a flu swab from both nostrils. I work in a busy ER and the most common and accurate method seems to be a Nasal wash. A few drops of saline are put in both nostrils and suctioned out. This is then sent to lab and a person is diagnosed with either Influenza A or B or is negative.Technically not everyone who tests positive for influenza is being checked for the swine flu, but either Influenza A or B. The CDC has a random sampling rule for deciding which positive flu washes or swabs are sent for confirmation.I am not sure of the percentages but I believe that approximately 80% of Influenza A is the Swine Flu.My guess is that the CDC is just including all of those who test positive as having the Swine flu.
