I got diagnosed with the flu. It's always something.

She gave me Tamiflu. Will it make me flare?

Thanks

hard to say, the Flu could exacerbate a flare or cause one....but I'd take the Tamiflu regardless.

Having the flu is hell....if it helps, go for it.

Keep us posted how you're doing....feel better soon!
Healing hugs to you,

The flu could make you flare but I doubt the Tamiflu will. I would guess that being on the Tamiflu might be a good option to try preventing a flare from the flu but that is only a guess.

I took Tamiflu last year (even though I got the shot, I still got the flu -ugh). It didn't make me flare, but I did get nauseous and vomit from it. Doesn't mean you will have the same response. Feel better! The flu is tough, make sure you rest and drink fluids
