There was a doctor on one of the morning news talk shows, that said you can get one in one arm and one in the other. I don't think so! Pat

Of course, if you have an egg allergy like I do, the point is moot!

If your MG is not flaring and there are no other reasons not to (egg allergy etc.) then YES get the shot.

My final two cents is, "Your own neuro knows YOU" I won't be getting the flu shot, not only because of what my neuro says, but because of my own experience with it.
I don't want to take the chance. Please everyone, listen to your body. This is why Myasthenia is the Snowflake disease. We all react so differently. And it also depends probably on how bad one has Mg. My breathing tanks way too easily for me to take a chance. Okay, I'm pretty terrorified to try again. Becareful out there. Love Lizzie |

So I talked to my neuro's associate yesterday, and he said that I should absolutely not have the H1N1 shot. He said that they have seen patients who have gotten the flu shot go into crisis. He said that even the dead vaccines are dangerous for people with MG.
*knocks on wood* that I don't get the swine flu |
