Do you get flu shots?
Same here!!!!Every time I have, they work: I get it.
No thanks.

Same with me -- except my body always reacts so badly it's ten times worse than it is in normal people who get the flu by accident.Every time I have, they work: I get it.
No thanks.

I've gotten them a couple times, I can't say it worked or didn't work particularly well. I've never had a bad reaction to one. Last year I did get one and did not get the flu, so I guess it worked?
I've never gotten the flu when I've had a shot, but I rarely get it without a shot, so I can't tell if it works or not. I can tell you that between 12 and 13 minutes after getting a flu shot (without fail - I bring a stopwatch now) I will break into a cold sweat and feel like I'm going to hurl. After about 10 minutes of that, it abruptly quits and I'm fine, except for the need to change my now-sweaty shirt. Weird, huh?
or maybe psychosomatic ?
Maybe. More likely just an allergic reaction of some sort. As far as I know, I'm not allergic to either eggs or thimerosol, though, so I'm as baffled as anyone.
