What are the symptoms of swine flu?

What are the differences between flu and swine fly symptoms?

• I've looked at the symptoms for both, but I can't find any differences. I have: Headache Upset stomach (loose stools, not yet full-on diarrhea) Muscle aches (haven't been doing strenuous activity) Joint pains (I'm 15, that's not very normal) Tired Not big appetite (which I almost always have) Sounds like the flu, but I haven't got that confirmed, and I don't know what else it could be. But how do I know if I have the flu, or if I have the swine flu? I'm 15 and thought I had a good immune system, but.... Just kind of worrying me; my state just had their first swine flu death.

• Answer:

  the syptoms are VERY similar. Some people with it on the news said ti felt just like normal flu. But don't worry! Its seriously NOT going to kill you :) Most people get over it in the next few days like normal flu! Just feel kind of lucky (if you do have it) that you get this version of the disease and are naturally immunised to it rather than having to have a needle in you or get the stronger version that might come later:)
