Flu in first trimester

I had a nasty flu over the weekend. Sore throat, fever for about 18 hours and vomiting all night. I tried to keep the fever down with tylenol, but it really didn't do much for me. I didn't have a thermometer but when my fever broke I was sweating profusely so I'm worried that maybe it was pretty high. I know it's not good to have a fever in the first trimester and now I'm a little nervous. Has anyone else been sick like this in the first trimester? I'm 11 weeks 5 days, I'm so close to being in the second trimester, I'd hate for anything to go wrong now.
Also, for the past two weeks I've been waking up every day with a migrane headache. It's made it really hard to concentrate on work and get anything done. Any suggestions?
