i get a flu shot every yr and do well with it. it's strongly suggested by both my pcp & neuro and the national MS society.

i just turned 60 and got the shingles vaccine. i had to think about that one but the consensus was that it would be worse to get the shingles than to get the shot. i did it and no effects.

the above advice was also given to me concerning the H1N1. when it's available i hope to get it.

under no circumstances should anyone with MS get the nasal vaccine. it's a live virus and not safe for us.

everyone, be well this winter.
