hello and thank you for asking HCM,
I understand your concern. A flu should already have passed. My suggestion is to visit your GP to examine your lungs. According to your symptoms you may have pneumonia. Your GP will probably send you on x-ray and give you appropriate antibiotics.
Until than drink a lot of fluids, at least 1.5-2 L per day and take antipyretics for fewer.
I hope this answer was helpful to you.
