i have a question.

Is a bluish purple of the skin a symptom of swine flu?

when there is fever the skin turns bluish purple and yet the skin is warm.

3 of my grandchildren are bi-racial, black and white. How do you tell if their lips and nails are blue? Is there another way to know?

two days ago my son woke up with vomiting and diarrhea. Yesterday I took him to his pediatrician. She didn't seem too concerned, however. Two weeks ago a friend of his at his middle school came down with the H1N1 virus. The boy was out of school for one week and returned to school mid last week. My sson's school never notified any parents about this outbreak. I went online to do my own researching about the virus. Vomiting and diarrhea are two symptoms of the H1N1 virus. I'm mad that the doctor seemed clueless to this fact. Oh, and last night I got the same symptoms as my son. We both have no fever, only body aches, vomiting and diarrhea. So is it safe for me to go out in public if I don't have a fever? Thanks

Stay awy from McDonalds & fast food in general till the season has peaked.The managers only care about volume sales -not our health .That is why they demand that their staff show up work ...fever or not.
