no longer get flu shots:
- not after having done so during the four years 1997- 2001 (when my then employer used to provide flu shots to any members of the work force who wished to receive these).
During those four years, I have never been so sick in my life, before or since ~~~Bungi Bill
Getting the flu shot will not make you sick for 4 years ~~~Barrold bonds
Call me stupid but I think the above poster means he has been sick in each of the four years in question not for four years solid, the years
they took the shots
Is this true or false ?
It does go on to list some people reporting reactions that include a couple of days of body aches and fever (which many would consider to be flu-like symptoms)
Is this true or false ?
The fact that so many say they DID get the flu just after getting the shot seems to indicate that one CAN. Maybe it's a different strain; maybe the shot triggers something dormant... but I have learned that when dealing with the medical industry, it's really not very prudent to say what will/will not occur or is/is not. ~~ Aguest
Are we to believe the the producers of the shots know everything... have studied everything... that because you don't know something it can't hurt you ?.. that a person would be so stupid as to take another shot after an adverse reaction ... that you might want to pass on a word of caution for others ?
I school of hard knocks teaches you that noone cares about you like yourself...
