[QUOTE="Meg2009Arm, post: 264274, member: 36741"] Hi JDM I've had the flu injection last two years also on the advice of my doc but I won't be doing it this year. Both times I have developed a bad chest infection after a week or two of flu like symptoms and although they say it isn't a 'live' vacine I was told by my GP that it does have an effect like this for some people. The symptoms appeared with me about two weeks after the jab on both occasions. I'm sure it's fine for many people though, I just think I'm going to see if I get any colds/flu or chest infections next winter without having had the jab. Meg [/QUOTE]
