Default One good/bad thing about my getting

IVIG? NO FLU SHOTS! Not until 6 months after infusions are stopped..
The only TIME I'd ever had a flu shot was after my ONSET and before infusions. I've still ONE BIG BAD KNOT in my arm from that THING! Soo, in my case, shots [unless as a 'mere' child' count] aren't in my issue picture.
Tho I have to say that my DH got his, so, should I get sick I think I'll be tended to a little bit? -I mean, last year w/my broken knee he DID really tend to me super! - j

I am absolutely not one to nix vaccines...like taking any medication, one shouldn't jump into it until you know possible or real consequences. That the info [good, bad and strange] is OUT THERE now, is great...we have the choices and can decide for ourselves. Yes, some aspects are scary, but often alternatives can be worse. Sigh, we can cure and kill ourselves at the same time - it's the informed choices that are the best tho...no looking back.
