Am I wrong for wanting to go to the doctor?

The tests are not being done any more - they have to be sent to the CDC, which is swamped and now only running tests for people in the hospital. All the standard cautions apply - lots of rest, fluids, etc. and watch for signs in case it gets worse. For most people (including my family) this runs a course just like the normal flu, so hang in there and wait it out. Frankly, I'm grateful we've had it and can stop worrying so much.

Night Time Pediatrics and Physicians Associates are both doing flu test, could be the quick test but they are doing them.
