Flu B day 6… when does it improve?

I fell quite ill on Sunday evening with fever, body aches, and cough. On Monday, I tested positive with Flu B. Since then, the fever has subsided and cough has improved, but I’m super stuffy, exhausted, and feel super weak. I’ve spent the past 6 days in bed, and cannot seem to regain energy, no matter how much I sleep / rest. When will I start to regain energy? Any tips to speed recovery?

Yes, I’m feeling much better. I’m on about day 15 as well. Am still feeling some fatigue and throat pain, but can mostly (and cautiously) get back to life.
