Typically do you have to have congestion/coughing with the flu? For the past 24 hours I've had a fever off and on with body aches. No congestion but just within the past few hours my ears have started feeling stuffy.
When I had the flu, I had congestion. But my main symptom was the exhaustion. I could not physically get off the couch for more than a couple of minutes for 5 days.
I haven't had the flu in years... but the one I had gave me major exhaustion, body aches and mid-grade fever (101-102*F). I didn't want to get off the couch for days. It took an effort to get myself to the bathroom.
I don't remember any coughing or congestion. I usually get those with a cold.

Hope you feel better soon, River.
I don't think I woke up with a fever this morning but my whole body is sore like I have been hit by a truck. Ugh. Thankfully MIL came and got DS so I can rest today.
