Had flu shot today. PCP office out, local county health dept out. Grocery store and Walmart were doing them today and tomorrow.

Not sure why some MS docs and neuros do not recommend H1N1, as NMSS site say they are safe for ppl w/ MS. Wonder if it messes w/ our out-of-whack immune system? But, I followed my doc's advice not to get H1N1 shot.
