rje11 Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 There are two folks in our household with the Type B flu. I did get the flu shot last fall, but am starting to get a sore throat and body aches. My temperature fluctuates quite a bit during the day, so if I get the flu should I expect it to go up and stay up like it would with a "normal" person. When I get cold, it goes down into the low 97's or even into the 96 range but it can go up to the high 99's the same day. For those of you with temperature fluctuations - have you had the flu? If so, how did it affect you? Is there any reason that someone with dysautonomia is at higher risk for complications with the flu?

gertie Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 Normally my temp range in the 96's. When I get an infection temp goes to 101's. I usually start fainting/syncope when I stand up when my temp goes up. That's my experience with temperature fluctuations. Not sure about complications with the flu.

statesof Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 My POTS symptoms tend to be a bit exaggerated whenever I get the flu, but its always just been temporary until I start coming out of it. I'm not sure if we are at higher risk for flue complications though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
