Question: How long until swine flu symptoms?

I was at my friends place last week and when he woke up he was really sick. I felt fine and I went home after. After about 3 days I heard he had swine flu. So I'm wondering if it can show up 1 week later after being exposed. Right now I have dry cough and my upper back is in pain. I'm also feeling fairly drowsy.

Well it takes about 2 days for the swine flu to 'kick in'. If you think you have swine, it might get into your head, and you might feel like you have it. But I am sure you are okay. Take care!

Average from exposure to symptoms is 2-3 days. It can be as little as 10 hours or as long as 10 days. Without a fever, you may have bronchitis or pneumonia. Go see a doctor.
