There's a good chance it WAS H1N1... Yes, the media has us all running scared. Kids truly can just get slightly sick with H1N1... My daughter had it too, I believe. Her pediatrician did the nose swab to confirm presence of a flu virus but she said that they do'nt do the specific H1N1 testing because (a) it's not totally accurate and (b) they don't treat it any different than any other flu. Just like all other strains of the flu, if the fever or cough get too bad, then they give more treatment. In a way, I almost consider myself lucky because now my daughter has some natural immunity built up against H1N1!
