Hey Jenna,
Glad you were able to get one. According to the news this morning, in the NY area at least, there are more vaccines available now of the H1N1. Hope we all make it through this season fluless or only a mild case of it. Stay well! Hugs, Pat |

Finally got my H1N1 shot yesterday. They *&#(ed up the distribution here something awful and had to keep bumping back everybody with chronic health problems because they kept running out of it giving it to the (healthy) parents of school kids.

yeah, I'm too late for it to do any real good for this wave of the flu. Just have to hope my wife and daughter don't bring it home. But they're expecting two or three more waves of it through the winter....

My Neuro advises me NO FLU SHOTS - says he had a colleague with MG who got the flu shot and became paralyzed - that's enough to scare me away from the shots.

Sounds like you're getting a very very small part of a story there though. It is kind of like the kid in Toronto who died of H1N1... there is more than we're hearing here. I got the flu shot and the H1N1 shot, I'm still walking around |

Hello all! I've decided to get them both - better safe than sorry!

I wish I could get them too, but I'm not willing to take the chance of getting another severe reaction again. Unfortunately there are some people who aren't able to tolorate them. Stay well everyone.

You're absolutely right Pat, if you get a severe reaction or cannot tolerate the flu shot,you should not get it. But that's the case whether you have MG or not. These are separate issues and seem to be getting confused in the discussion. There is nothing about the flu shot that is bad for MG.
