Swine Flu Vaccination

The swine flu vaccination is included in the annual flu vaccination this year, which is a vaccination against the types of flu that are anticipated to be common this year.

I had it last week. I don't know if it was psychological because of the bad press, but i did seem to have a bit more of a reaction this year. Bit nauseous for a day, and had the sniffles for a few days.

Got the swine flu jab when it first came out last year and no reaction, plus my wife who is type 1 diabetic had no reaction. Got the annual flu shot this year which included the swine flu shot and no reaction, and my wife who is now pregant also had no reaction. You'll be sweet. :D

I was a bit funny on day 3-4 afterwards. Blocked up, and a bit headachey.

Though I did have a good session on the wine on day 1-2 (Saturday night), which might explain it all... :lol:

Got mine as part of the annual flu vaccine. Sore arm for a couple of days, but I got really bad chills and was aching everywhere, paracetamol every 4 hours for a couple of days and good to go again.

The vac symptoms will always not be as bad as the virus's symptoms... Its a good idea to get it, although, the swine flu isnt really that bad. I'd be more worried about flu type A.
