Haven’t had one in 14 years.

I did get my flu shot and was still sick as a dog. Last week was a nightmare and I'm still getting over it. Buy ammo and stockpile food because this may be the big one. The Zombie Apocalypse may be upon us. If we're lucky this may wipe out every SJW on the planet. Everyone know's those pasty ****'s have weak constitutions. Only a matter of time before they start eating eachother.

ROTFLMAO!

Yeah, the flu shots are like russian roulette. Might help, might make you sick, might kill you. Who knows? That's why they call it "practicing" medicine. I wish they would get it right once and for all. [frypan]

The flu shot will never get your sick from the flu. This is a myth.

No, no it isn't.

Every year in the Navy I got a Flu shot, every year I got sick. And I wasn't the only one. After I retired I refused to get the damn things for that very reason. My sister, the smarter than everyone nurse said the same thing you just did. I told her she was wrong too and I wasn't getting the damned things. I didn't, and never did get the flu nor the fever and chills thing.

But, when the grand-kids moved in with us and the whole grade school petri dish incubator parallel thing occurred to me, I got one. I figured better safe than sorry as that strain was pretty ugly. Sure as crap I got sick, same reaction I've always had. I was sitting in a corner at work wrapped up in my jacket trying to stay warm and pounding water. Went home with a fever and slept for 2 days. Then I ended up catching the flu anygoddamned way!

Thus, I don't really give a tinkers damn what the "experts" think, the damned things make me sick. Fever, chills, the whole nine yards for anywhere from 24 to 48 hours. They always have, they always do. Cause and effect. It is what it is, but's it is reality, at least in my world.

So. Have a nice day. ](*,)

One can feel unwell from the flu shot. CDC says something like 1-2% of the population will feel fever and chills for up to 2 days after receiving the flu shot.

I have no idea what causes this... but it's not the flu itself, and you are not "sick" as in infected with a virus. Your body is having a negative reaction to the flu shot in some manner.

Feeling unwell = sick.

Do you parse and quibble every single freaking point?

Dude, being an adult means you don't have to post. It's my view, I'm keeping, I do not care about yours.

Have a nice day.

Holy shiite. 😣
