Sorry I never responded to your question, Lana. I never got the flu vaccine prior to my PD DX. Then, as Olsen said, my MDS advised me to get it, so I did. The single dose.

I've had no complications from it. I never had the flu prior to vaccine and haven't with it either. But, I've always wondered about the possible auto-immune function of PD protecting us from other illnesses. I haven't had one in many years, not even a mild cold. If it weren't for a progressive neurodegenerative brain disease, I would be doing just great.....haha.
