and family arrived in Florida to various households from 4 states in the week before Thanksgiving. We provided Thanksgiving dinner for all.
Overnight and the next day a majority of us (probably a dozen or so including me and my husband) came down ill. I was practically moribund, so it was a few days before I learned that my initial symptom of just feeling incredibly fatigued and weak, accompanied by an initial fever, was the main one described by others. Fatigue/weakness. Followed by some muscle aches, rising fever, and only later in my case moving to my chest.
Btw, I only later learned that some assumed my dinner caused it. Understandable, it was the very beginning of the Florida outbreak that year and hadn't reached the news yet, besides, who knows who brought it -- but so unfair! My hands were raw from washing so often to make sure no one could get sick. But that's life, of course, even if I do still feel a need to mention it. 
In any case, that flu had an especially strong initial fatigue symptom, relatively moderate muscle aches, but otherwise it was typical.
