Could I have the swine flu?

Hey everybody,
Earlier today I woke up at 3 am with my nose being congested. I later went back to sleep. Then when I woke up at about 6:30 I got ready for school and I got to school at about 7:45. At about 9 o clock my symptoms started to occur. I've had wet cough for the past 3 days as of now, and I just started to have a really bad runny nose this morning. I also started sneezing ALOT. Now it kind of hurts when I sneeze. So I went home at about 12:00 and I got my temperature taken. It was 104.5, i've read in kids thats ok but adults that isnt, and I'm almost 15 (in november).
So I just went to bed and I put a cool cloth on my head and I also took tylenol. My fever was 104.5 a few hours ago now its down to about 101.5. Do you think I should have gone to the doctors when my fever was at 104.5? Or Do you think im fine now?
Also, here are my symptoms: Wet cough, congestion, runny nose, a little bit of chills, my head hurts only when I cough, and that is it for now. If somebody could give me their opinion that would be great. Thank you!

Huh? The normal human body core temp is 96.6 degrees F. If you're not at this temp you're not fine. Don't kid yourself, above 100 is considered a fever. Going to school with a 104.5 temp just meant you spread your germs and infected a bunch of other kids. Bad on you.
Go see your doctor right away b4 it gets worse.
