Symptoms H1N1 - Swine flu

I wondered what were the symptoms of the H1N1 flu .. If only because last night I'm in bed with high fever and sore throat.

I'd like to know if I have the phantom Influenza A or is a simple pharyngitis.

All in all I'm not really bad at this moment I have 38.3 of fever, but I can sit and write.

Looking at the website of the Ministry of Health have found that:

The symptoms of a new human influenza virus A (H1N1) are similar to those of "classical" seasonal flu and include fever, drowsiness, loss of appetite, cough. Some people have also experienced cold, sore throat, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
In particular, influenza A (H1N1) is a condition called acute respiratory abrupt and sudden onset with fever of about 38 ° or greater, accompanied by one of the following symptoms:
headache;
general malaise;
sensation of fever (sweating chills);
asthenia (weakness);
and at least one of the following respiratory symptoms:
cough
sore throat (sore throat)
nasal congestion

I would say that practically have the same symptoms of sore throat, I've got almost all (mullets aside) and this time we had them almost all colds in the past.

It seems almost impossible to distinguish between colds and flu. I just hope to get back by Saturday
