Simple question. Just wondering if there is a procedure for this.
Simple question. Just wondering if there is a procedure for this.
Bummer. I was hoping there was some previous condition I could say I had. I get sick 1-2 days after the flu shot every time. I got it Monday and I am now sick as a dog. The last time was 2003 (couldn't dodge the bullet that year). Same thing happened. Each year in between-no flu shot and made it through the entire season without so much as a sniffle.
Find a way to convince them that you work with immunocompromised patients. Say you work in the ICU a lot or something. The immunologists at my MTF won't give the Flumist to anyone that works regularly in the ICU since it's just attenuated.
I got really sick immediately after taking the flu mist a while back so I try to stick to the shot too. I haven't seen the flu mist as a civilian yet. My medical center uses the shot.
Tell them you had Guillian Barre last time you got the flu shot.
I just told the E2 to give me the shot.
I told them I went into anaphylaxis with the mist, but im a bad liar and wound up giving in.
I am still trying to think of something that will prevent them from pulling my already erupted wisdome teeth...ideas? I thought about saying that several of my immediate relatives died while under anesthesia, but then they will just do it while I am awake.
