I started having symptoms 5 days ago and am just now starting to recover. The nausea went away today and I'm feeling much better overall - just tired and stuffy. How long should I stay away from people? The doctor said I could go back to work on Monday. I have a pregnant friend coming over in 2 days and I want to know whether I should be around her. We will be very careful with handwashing, coughing, etc. as I know it's transmitted by respiratory secretions. But should I just stay away from her?

Thanks. This flu thing stinks.
