Anyone had one this year yet? Had mine on Wednesday and have been rough as a bears arse since.
Had to have one last year with Mrs Moon due to her having a sten cell transplant, took me 3 weeks to get over it... due another for this year shortly not looking forward to it.
Never had one and don't really want one....I've had what I would call real flu twice in my lifetime and I don't know if that was real flu....so don't see the point unless getting flu can cause you real problems with the rest of your health
I have M.E and fibro as well,i always get told to have the jab but i rarely go out so i don't bother with it so someone else can get it instead,hope you stay ok through the winterHaving had a heart attack and having Fibromyalgia and M.E. hence a duff immune system the doctor was quite insistent that I should have it. I forgot last year and lived to tell the tale, but I guess its a good idea to have it.
It probably doesn't give you full blown flu and I've been told that it is impossible that it makes you ill but I only had it once and within 24 hours was so ill I couldn't get out of bed for a couple of days. Never risked it again. It is amazing how many people coincidentally feel rough as fuck within a day of having it.The flu jab can't give you flu,you might just have picked up a virus at the doctors,if you had real flu you wouldn't be posting on here as you'd be in bed feeling like you were dying
