Flu Shot....Will You or Won't You?
 
Will you get a flu shot this year? They've combined several vaccines into one I hear. If you're going to get one....why? And if you're not going to get one.....why?

I'm the first one to respond so 100% of us are getting one.:D I have always gotten a flu shot, and have never experienced a problem. I think I would be crazy not to get one considering I am constantly around college students.

I will if they have it at my Doc's office, at my annual October appointment.:)

Every year.

Same here, absolutely.

Never have, never will. I'm in the "don't fix it if it ain't broke" category. I rarely ever get sick and believe it's because I don't toy with my immune system anymore than is absolutely necessary.

When I do catch a bug, it's short-lived and really only an inconvenience for a day or two.

Last year was the first time for me...my neuro strongly suggested it, so I listened for once:rolleyes: I will again this year too.

Never had one and I plan to keep it that way! I hardly ever get sick, even with runny nosed grandkids around all the time.

Every year.
Why?
  • My docs recommend it.
  • I've never had a problem with it, other than a sore arm when the wrong nurse gives it.
  • My docs believe getting the flu could put me at risk for a flare.
