Went away yesterday, now is back with different symptoms. Am supposed to fly to California to visit relatives today. Should I just don a "bird flu" mask and go?

Brief Answer:
Adequate hydration with paracetamol.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for your query.

In my opinion, you are not having fever. Temperature more than 99 degree Celsius is fever. Nausea, body ache a can be treated with paracetamol 500 mg. Take adequate hydration and rest. Continue Tylenol if temp is more than 99 only. I don't think you need bird flu mask .

Hope my answers have helped you.
Thanks.
