Dennis,
Since you're a doctor, I'd be interested in your take on my experience.
Shooting in very dim light I know but do you think the Tamiflu could be
related to my rather odd recovery from what was probably an intestinal
virus? Can you tell us how Tamiflu works?

I'm not Dennis, but if you did not have influenza, it is incredibly
unlikely that Tamiflu (oseltamivir) had any effect on the virus.
Oseltamivir is a neuraminidase inhibitor -- neuraminidase is
an important enzyme for influenza that I believe is pretty unique
to this particular virus.
Intestinal bugs frequently only last a day or two, so almost anything
you take for them might seem to be working over a 24 hour period.
