[QUOTE="pedro606, post: 89600, member: 14240"] I have recently finished my 5 day course of Tamiflu. I very rarely get 'flu' and have been having the injections regularly for the past 8 years or so. However, this new strain of flu is not covered by that. From what I remember from how I felt when I had 'flu' before it was no worse at all. The Tamiflu certainy did work very fast though. Having said that - you really need to start taking the tabs within 48 hours of diagnosis. I live in Wales. I rang my surgery last monday morning when they opened and a GP rang me at home. I was classed as 'high risk' because I am a relatively new Type 2 diabetic. I am also a cancer patient in remission. Anyway, if being a diabetic means we get 'preferential' treatment then I am all for it!! I am much much better now. Mind you, my BS levels were up a bit during my illness. regards, Pete [/QUOTE]
