Flu Shots
Pro or Con.

If you've had em before, do you think they helped you?
What is the reason you have for not wanting one?
Any reactions?

How about the pneumonia shot?

just curious to hear some stories......

My wife gets them every flu season and she says that they have helped her. I myself don't need them. For some reason I'm fairly flu resistant.

The last time I had the flu was the last time I got a flu shot. Made me sick as a dog for three days.

I've never had one bacause I don't need one. The only people who are in real danger from the flu are people recovering from surgery/medical treatment and old people. I haven't had surgery or any medical problems and I'm not old.

I usually get sick right around the changing of the seasons. Other than that, I don't really get the Flu.

I am not sure if they work, but I should go get my Flu shot just in case.

CE and I get our shots every year. Our immune systems have a rough time as it is dealing with the number of other physical problems.

Are you sure it's not just stress? People under a lot of stress get sick a lot more.... a LOT more.

no flu shots needed with me.

Although an allergy shot will help me during allergy season.

And because of my allergies, I may develop a throat infection.
