I licked the floor and now I cant stop sneezing. Have I got swine flu?

Hello to all my 16 month began vomiting 2 days ago but it only happened that first day twice then yesterday his nose started running and he ran a slight fever. Now today his nose is running, his eyes are watering terribly, he is just so wore out and sleepy all the time, he also seems to be a little congested. I made him a doc appt for tomorrow morning but should i take him to the er now? I am just soo worried with the swine flu going around and all. Plus after i made the doc appt he has gotten worse. I have read about the symptoms of swine flu and i havent read anywhere saying it includes watery eyes so could this just be the change of weather and season? I live in Louisville, KY and just the other day the weather became much colder and less humid starting to feel like fall. I am hoping it is just allergies and the sudden change of weather! Any ideas or advice? should i take him to be seen today since he has gotten worse although he is not runnin a temp. currently but he is still acting clingy and tired, runny nose, watery eyes (seems like he is crying at times). Just a worried mommy! Plus I am 37 weeks pregnant so I am trying to be really cautious because both my son and myself are more likely to get it.

OK, here’s the deal. Let just say that the culprit is the bad/cold/stuffy weather and you wake up in the morning, either having unstoppable sneezing or runny nose (as if having flu). Should you be constantly on pills or medication to get rid of the allergies? Or is there any other way to make the sneezing/flu stop?
