It can be. Do you have a fever....does it fee like flu?
Quite a few fms have had it already Jono, so maybe they can answer better than I can.

have you taken your temperature and if so is it over 38 degrees?
The two symptoms you mentioned are related to swine flu but then they are related to just having a simple cold. It's the temperature that seals it!
Probably...get some paracetamol down your neck to help with the temperature.

my temp was 37.6 : (
If you are feeling ill as that you crawl onto a BB forum to discuss it I'd say it probably isnt life-threatening....
Dunno, but wear a mask whilst typing on here...don't want any bugs transferred to us...
sounds dodgy whatever it is. get better soon, have a toddy
I've got a temp of 37.9 and my skin looks like corned beef and I'm feeling pretty sorry for myself.... 
I didn't say it was life threatening I want sympathy if people can come on here with their dying cats I can come on with my vomming!! 
and if I poo myself later I'll come back to let you all know

Jojo, asking on here for medical advice is like asking for legal advice. It is all bullshit and totally inaccurate 
I did medically evacuate 2 very suspect sweaty people from oil rigs last week.

I've got a spot of conveyancing I need done too, I love forum advice, especially the ones that offer counselling.
but what would happen if a cat got swine flu....now that would need its own forum
I don't think vomiting has an association with swine flu - it could be food poisoning or a stomach bug.
From the info I got, if you have a fever over 38 degrees, AND sore throat, coughing, aches and pains then you MIGHT have Swine flu.
I will stick some of my anti-sickness drugs in my hard drive and send them to you. They really don't work that well, but they might have a placebo effect.

the information I read on NHS Direct said vomiting is a symptom of swine flu but it's one of many symptoms and not everyone will have the same. Also the tamiflu drug makes you vomit

Not necessarily, mine was 37.5 when I was diagnosed

this is why there's so much confusion - they say you have to have a temp of 38 then diagnose (rightly or wrongly) swine flu with a lesser temp. Wish they'd make their bliddy minds up.
Hope you're feeling better
