Do you take the flu jab?

Had the flu jab and now I'm experiencing the flu.

I took paracetamol before the appointment too.

Ugh!

No. It causes me to have several episodes of Paraflu each time I’ve taken it and that was 30 years ago. Never again.

@cherokeepatti fair enough. Sometimes these things can cause a bad reaction. I took it last year with baby and I was fine. But this pregnancy has been very different

@NativePortlander1970 I developed rheumatoid arthritis about the timeI was taking the flu vaccine and now believe that the vaccine could have triggered it. I was in my mid-30’s then.
