While we were at the dr, I asked if they were testing patients with flu-like symptoms for Mexican swine flu and her answer was, “Not really.”

I'm not at all surprised by this. That's why I think this flu is already much wider spread than we think it is. The question is how lethal it may be. It's a good sign your family is doing well, in spite of infections that could potentially be swine flu. Let's hope that will continue to be the pattern!

I just saw on another thread that Minnesota is now looking at 50-60 cases now. I’m in complete agreement with you about how widespread it is. I’ve debated whether we should specifically ask to be tested for it or not. Everyone in our family is getting over it so far and honestly, I am afraid of the government having us on a list of confirmed cases or something.

We have to hope and pray that we are better able to deal with this virus, that our medical care and base health is better, so we can weather this storm well.
