(32,701 posts)My 65 year old mom is having flu like symptoms following a long flight (14 hrs + 2.5 hrs), cruise, and the same long flight home. My dad isn't showing symptoms but they're in close proximity all the time. They are both overweight with high blood pressure. My mom is brushing the whole thing off and blaming her symptoms on stress. She thinks I'm overreacting and says I'm ruining her ability to self heal.
I was with them for the trip, so it's possible that I and/or others who were with us have it too, but, unlike my mom, I have no symptoms and I'm perfectly OK with self quarantining whereas she's itching to get out there and potentially infect others.
I just dropped off Nyquil and Dayquil cold and flu softgels. Now off to google testing options.
