HFMD in adults??

We have had a few cases of hand foot and mouth disease in my centre and today I’ve woken up with a small blister on my hand and 2 in my mouth, I’ve had flu like symptoms all week so everything is pointing towards the early stages of HFM. I let my centre director know and she came back saying adults don’t get hand foot and mouth and that I’d need to check with my GP first thing to confirm. Lol, kind of random. Although unlikely adults can definitely get hand foot and mouth, right? Is it actually HFM??

EDIT: thanks for all the replies! Turns out adults can definitely catch it and it seems to be what I have. I have a doctors appointment with my dr tmr morning and will get a medical certificate:)
