Can you have swine flu without a cough or congestion?
You can have swine flu without fever. Fully 1/2 of people with swine flu have had no fever. I did not have a fever, but I ended up with acute pneumonia after only 24 hours. It went straight to my chest! Here's an article about having swine flu without a fever: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/13/health/13fever.html
How long can you be sick with the Swine Flu this is the third week for my daughter?
This is a very serious complication. you are only suppost to have swine flu for 2 weeks. If you have it any longer this means that you have a very high risk from dying of infection. Take her to the hospital and they will give her some drugs to decrease that risk. by the way I'm joking.
Can you request the Swine Flu test at clinic?
I took my daughter to the doctor 2 weeks ago with a high fever and no other symptoms other than she was tired. They tested her for the regular flu and it came back negative so they said it must be swine flu and prescribed her Tamiflu. I asked about testing her for swine and they said now that they know it is in the area, they do not send out samples to be tested anymore. They said it would take 2 weeks to get the results back from the CDC even if they would send it out for testing. My husband went to the doctor today with a 102 degree fever and body aches. They tested for the regular flu and it was negative so they treated him for swine also with Tamiflu. I guess they are not testing anymore....that is frustrating.
When do symptoms of the Swine Flu subside?
Usually in only a few days, or up to a week. Symptoms of the cough can last longer, but if over 2 weeks and the cough continues, a health care professional should be contacted for an exam to be sure there is not a secondary respiratory infection.

What are the four phases of Swine Flu?
It is not a combination of four viruses in swine flu, only the one H1N1/09 virus. You may be thinking of the four types of genetic material contained in the genome (virus DNA or RNA hereditary information) that are found in the H1N1/09 virus. These contain the genetic material of the virus and help in identification of the specific virus and the origins of it. Swine flu (H1N1/09) contains genomes from four types of flu, this is called a quadruple reassortant (or reassortment). It indicates that there have been changes in the original virus with introduction of new genomes to create the new form. The four types of flu reassorted in the pandemic swine flu are: Eurasian swine flu, American swine flu, Avian flu, and Human flu. Some scientists prefer to call it a quintuple reassortant and list it as five by breaking down Eurasian swine flu into the original two genomes that combined to form it, Asian swine flu and European swine flu.
Do you have to have a fever to have the Swine Flu?
No, some people do not have fever with the H1N1/09 swine flu, although it is a common symptom. See the related question for more information about the symptoms of A-H1N1/09 Pandemic swine flu.
