I can understand your concern.You have flu. Night sweating, vomiting, fever all are common in flu. Don't worry. just continue your tamiflu. Take plenty of fluid orally. If you have fever then you can take paracetamol as and when required. Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me.
