re: Do You Typically Go to the Clinic Just for a Flu Diagnosis?

I go if I suspect flu. They do a nasal swab and know in minutes.

If I have it, I know to stay away from coworkers and others to avoid spreading it, and I can get an Rx to help some.

Last time I had the flu, the symptoms were very mild (I had the flu shot, which can reduce symptoms even if you still get the flu), and I was on the way to work when I got checked just in case. Good thing I checked, or I would have exposed a bunch of other folks.
