Is a stomach flu the same as a stomach virus?

Although the "stomach flu" is a common term, it is not a real diagnosis. The proper medical term for stomach flu is gastroenteritis (an intestinal disease or infection, sometimes viral but it can also be a bacterial infection). It is often mistaken for influenza because the real influenza viral infection can sometimes include vomiting and diarrhea as symptoms. The symptoms like those of "stomach flu" can also be caused by other things, such as a food-borne illness, like infection from E. coli or Salmonella from contaminated food sources; intestinal disorders like inflammatory bowel disease; and psychosomatic (emotional) disorders.

What illness includes mild fever chill coughing flu diarrhea headache?

It could be many things, even pneumonia, so the symptoms should not be ignored, especially if the fever gets more intense, contact your medical professional for proper diagnosis in your case. But commonly it would be what is called the Norwalk Flu, "stomach flu" or gastroenteritis. Calling it a "flu" is a misnomer since "flu stands" for influenza and that is a disease of the respiratory tract only. The "Norwalk Flu" and "Stomach flu" are just common names given to viral gastroenteritis or similar intestinal/bowel infections. These are usually caused by a norovirus (hence the nickname "Norwalk Flu"). Another illness with similar symptoms you describe is the seasonal influenza or swine flu that can sometimes cause diarrhea along with the respiratory symptoms but that is not typical of the influenza viruses.
