Re: Flu Jab

I haven't had one since 1995, I'm allergic to them, don't have the pneumonia jab either

Re: Flu Jab

was talking to the nurse about it today and he said it isn't the same as it used to be, there is nothing 'live' in it anymore

Re: Flu Jab

My other half is supposed to have it....and I know it is not a live virus, but if he has it he gets really bad colds(he calls it 'flu'...but it isn't) one after another...so last year he didn't have the jab, and he was well all winter......never got a cold.

Re: Flu Jab

Yup, have a flu jab every year, and I have the sore arm to prove it - five days later! - but I don't get flu.

Re: Flu Jab

i've had it this year because i've had a really bad chest, my asthma seems to be getting worse, everytime i have a cold it seems to lay heavy on my chest making me very breathless, i know it won't stop me having a cold but if it stops me having flu and feeling a lot worse than i do at the moment it was worth having it
