You can't tell on your own. Just call your doctors and tell them. They will probably just have you come in and be tested anyways. Swine Flu is the flu x 10. So throwing up, light headed, chest congestion, diarreha, body aches and so on.

The only way to tell is to be tested. They do a swab of your nose and send it to a lab. 24-48 hours later you know.

It doesn't really matter if it's the regular flu or swine flu, the treatment is the same. If your symptoms are severe - see your doctor.
