I have not gotten a flu shot since I was dx with TM 31/2 years ago. My neurologist says the flu shot my have precipitated my TM & told me no immunization of any kind from now on. This includes flu, pneumonia, & even tetanus shots. My primary care MD gives me a Rx for Tamiflu to have filled "just in case", but I have never had to use it. I am very particular about who comes to the house & everyone knows if they or their kids have any kind of sniffles to stay home. I avoid crowds during the winter & tend to stay at home. It has worked for me so far. Linda E.

Interested in knowing how many people plan on getting a flu shot this season. I know this is very controversial within the group. Neither one of my neurologist have told me NOT to get one, including Dr. Kerr. They both have said that it was safe. My primary care physician suggests I get it since I have heart disease and diabetes. Carol in Culver, IN
