Step 1
Every winter I get the flu. I've never gotten the flu shot, people say it works, next year perhaps I'll look into this.
This year I got the flu, it started off just as a sore throat, and than the next day I woke up in a pile of sweat, and I just had no energy. -
Step 2
First thing, call in sick. No point going to the office and getting everyone else sick. Plus if you are like me, you are stupid when you are sick. My brain does not work, I am useless.
Stay in bed. Either sleep lots, or set up a tv so you can lie under 5 covers and just sweat it out. Also be sure to drink lots of fluids like water, and ginger ale. -
Step 3
When I had the flu, I really wasn't hungry, but I was thirsty. So make sure you stay under the covers and sweat. The whole way to get rid of the flu is to sweat it out. Get lots of sleep, wear flannel pjs and stay in bed.

Step 4
If you try cleaning, or walking around, or anything you are doing more damage. Your body is fighting off the flu, help it by staying in bed with lots of covers on you and sweat it out. If you follow my instructions, in three days, you'll be fine. That's how long it took with me. I stayed home 3 days, to really get the flu out my system, and than I went to work. I still had a head-cold for a week, but the flu was gone.

on 2/5/2009 Sweating in out always works for me too.
I haven't had the flu in ages or even a cold for that matter, but last week, wham. Put on sweats, got a couple gallons of gatorade and buried myself. Three days later I could cough without the top of my head exploding.
As for for the Doctor (if you have health insurance) and Tamiflu, the news said yesterday that this version of flu is resistant to it. Basically, you can spend a fortune for Tamiflu, but you'll have to just sweat it out anyway.
I agree with TracyS, fever burns it out of your system.

Do not use blankets and duvets in bed.
Keep the room at a comfortable temperature and make sure that fresh air is circulating.
Rest and avoid heavy activity until symptoms go away.
