Hey Carol,
I have been getting the flu shots for years. But I really made sure of
getting the flu shot after I became HIV+ and Hep. B since Sept. 1989 and then
on top of that with TM since April 2002. I have never had a problem with a flu
shot.

Krissy,
The Flu is a virus that, unlike chicken pox, is always slowly mutating.
So, you get the flu one year, get over it, and will not get that flu again,
BUT, the flu virus mutates so next w

My neuro's nurse thinks that I should pass on the flu shot, but said
that my doc would leave it up to my own discretion. We discussed the
possibility of the flu shot itself actually causing a relapse, and my fear is so
great that I would rather take my chances with flu.

Terry was ambivilent in the past to get the flu shot and it has been on
ongoing debate here at the TM site. However,this year his Neuro highly
recommended it. He got it a couple of weeks ago and hopefully will avoid
the flu this year. I should get one too, but they are limited in our area
I've had a flu shot every year for maybe decades. No side effects and no
flu.

I got TM after having the flu so I get the shot every
year. I never have problems with it. I am a bit
nervous about it right before I get it each time,
though. I'm always weighing the risks of getting vs.
not.
