I didn't get the flu shot for the past few years... I got the flu instead.

I'm kind of in a catch 22.... a shot (B12) was given in my arm and caused my RSD to spread to that location...

Was given a tetanus shot about 6 months ago... sent my arm into a major flair and the prettiest colors of red and purple for several weeks.

Also had to have some blood drawn... several sticks... this did the same thing....


So... do I get the flu, H1N1, and pneumonia shots that are being strongly recommended in my neck of the woods and risk a flair up (RSD can't spread to arms or anywhere a shot would be administered...it's already there) OR do I risk getting the flu, H1N1, and pneumonia??


ARGH....
