What Are the Symptoms of H1N1 ?

The symptoms of the H1N1 virus are very similar to the season flu. They include:

• fever
  
• coughing
  
• fatigue
  
• diarrhea and/or vomiting
  
• runny nose
  
• body aches/headaches
  
• sore throat

If you begin to experience these flu symptoms, it is very important to call your doctor. Even better, you and your doctor should develop a course of action in the event you develop flu-like symptoms or are exposed to someone with the H1N1 virus. You probably already have a plan in action already if you are undergoing chemotherapy or radiation therapy to monitor for signs of illness and infection anyway, but it's important to know in what event your doctor wants you to go into the emergency room.
