Hello,

This can still be the flu. Every year flu shots are formulated for the strain of flu that is expected to hit that year. We are seeing some strains this year that the shot would not provide protection for. Try to see your medical provider in the morning for an antiviral like Tamiflu that can lessen the severity and duration of the symptoms. Hope you feel better soon.
