Default Question about flu shot - also, dizziness

Hi,

I wanted to know whether anyone knew whether the flu shot could make your symptoms flair up or not. This year the doctors are really promoting the flu shot, and I usually take one. But because I am so sensitive to medicines and to "everything" right now, I just don't know what to do. The doctors really don't have an answer for me. I wanted to know what you thought.

Also, I am eight months post concussion, and I am having a lot of dizziness lately. I know that there are some posts about dizziness, but I am just not feeling well enough today to look through and find them. Is there anything that helps you when you get "foggy" and lightheaded and/or dizzy? It seems to just be happening more in the last two weeks or so.

I do take a little bit of Ativan if I am really dizzy, and that helps, but I don't want to have to keep taking medicine....

I hope this makes sense. I am pretty "foggy" right now, and I will end.
Thank you for any suggestions you might have.
