Should I go to an emergicare center?

Question:

i'm home sick and my dad thinks that i have the swine flu. therefore instead of filling up the emergency rooms and waiting to get in to an appt. with a doctor he plans on taking me to an emergicare center to get what he thinks a shot but my mom thinks i'd get those tamiflu pills. do you find it really necessary to go?



my symptoms are:

-bad deep cough

-runny/stuffy nose

-fever of 102.4

-achy body and joint pains



-thanks (:

Answer:

I'd go just to be on the safe side. They can give you medication to help it go away quicker and can make sure your lungs sound pneumonia free. That's a big concern with the flu.
