How do I tell the difference between Swine Flu and the common flu?

I am having flu like symptoms and have been in contact with someone from the US but he isn’t sick.

Brianna’s Mommy asked:


My friend works at a cancer clinic, and they have been advised to send any people who come in for treatment for testing if they have flu like symptoms. Since the treatment and in some cases the type of cancer causes “flu-like symptoms” in at least 80% of cancer patients, her department has been sending the majority of their patients to get tested.

Does this seem unnecessary to you? We live in a province in Canada that has not had any confirmed swine flu cases.
