[QUOTE="Prem51, post: 1241295, member: 209498"] I has flu once. about 10 years ago, and wouldn't want to get it again. I thought I would die. But I do have a real phobia of needles. GPs and DNs are supposed to offer the flu jab to all diabetics as we have weakened immune systems. My DN did offer me the flu jab after I was diagnosed last year. I asked if I could have the oral medication instead, which is available for children (and NHS staff) but she said I couldn't, so I declined the jab When I saw my GP for 12 monthly meds review she offered it to me again, but again I declined. I would take the oral version, but I really can't face an injection. [/QUOTE]
