[QUOTE="azure, post: 1294804, member: 39639"] [USER=176883]@Lottiej1991[/USER] As I'm sure you know, flu can be nasty - hence the vaccine offered to,at risk groups. I haven't had a flu vaccination this year and only had it twice previously because I had a very similar reaction to,you. I felt ill for three weeks. It wasn't a cold or flu itself, and it certainly wasn't in my head. I spoke to the practice nurse who said that some people did react some years. On the other occasion, I had the flu vaccination and was fine afterwards, so, in my unmedical opinion, I'd say it seems to vary year by year as to whether you react badly or not. I hope that's some comfort. Only you can decide what's best for,you. [/QUOTE]
