And blogs about it here. Prior to this I had posted his advice here on how to care for your kids during the upcoming flu season given the swine flu scenario being hyped by the press. Well, he contracted H1N1 in Afghanistan and describes the symptoms in his post. They are bad, but he recovered. It is nice to have accurate information about this virus from a blogging physician.
Update: I saw an interview with Dr. Gupta on CNN this morning. He still has a cough and even though he didn't specifically write it in his blog post, this morning he admitted on the air it that having this particular flu was the worst he has ever felt in his life. For one who is not prone to hyperbole and whose job it is to give rational information to the public in a calm, reassuring manner, that is a pretty strong statement. Ouch!
