This was on Saturday. Monday morning after walking 4 miles I started having aches all over my body and pain shooting through my ears and head. Then I had chills. All of this happened within an hour. I took my temperature and it was at 101 then later at 102 degrees. I took aspirin and it took my temperature down to 101. I woke up about 2 am all covered in sweat. But my aches were gone. I am still running a low grade fever of 99.8 to 100. I have no cold symptoms. But I have had diareahea at the onset and it continues. It has been about 36 hours. Could this be a flu, something I cought from a cow, or contact with people at church Sat. night where there was coughing, sneezing, and shaking hands? Do you think I am contagious?
