It's that time of year again that I have to have my flu shot. I don't mind the shot except the next day it feels like someone punched me in my arm.

Do you get a flu shot?
 
I usually do. They offer them at my work once a year for the community that lives around there.

They charge $25 or if you cant pay, they will still give to you for free. But they expect you to pay I suppose.



I just did the inhaler one last year. I breathed in the live flu virus instead of getting it injected into me. I felt like shit that night. BUT I didnt get the flu all year.
 
My daughter and I both had one yesterday. I don't find it hurts at all but she said hers hurt like mad. I think she must have tensed her arm as she didn't want to get one and I made her because I'm a big meanie.

I tend to only get injections when I really need them. The friggen nurse treats me like a pin cushion. I went for a jab and came out with 3!
 
I've never gotten them, and.. I've never gotten the flu!



oh yeah go me
 
I just got mine and it didn't hurt. As a matter of fact, I asked when she was going to do it and she said you're all done.

In the medical profession we don't have a choice whether or not we want one. The amount of people we come into contact with, I'm glad I get this shot. Never have had the flu and don't want to ever get the flu.
 
had one for the last 4 years............my partner had one for the first time last year and she now swears she will never go with out again........we both fall in to 'at risk' catagories for different reasons.........we are both booked in for ours in about 2 weeks time
 
Had mine yesterday and woke up feeling a little under the weather this morning. Hope this doesn't last long

Flu shots for me = Rifle Shot.

All the flu sessions I got since my birth are deadly, my nose turn red like clown's nose and sneezing loudly like a chubby banana screaming from the 10th floor
