When Emily wakes up on day 7 of her H1N1 swine flu infection she is feeling well. She goes to visit her family and believes she has recovered from the illness.
Later in the evening, she starts to feel run down and then develops another high fever and starts vomiting. She is also experiencing chest pain and her cough returns.
Although H1N1 swine flu infections are mild for most people, some individuals to develop complications or secondary infections. If you start to feel better (like Emily did) and then suddenly get sick again, you should see your health care provider to determine if you have another infection, especially if you are considered high risk.
