Hi Shell,
Nice to meet you too. Thank you for the article. This helps a lot. So, just to summarize, I should definitely get the Flu shot, correct?
Flu shots don't cause relapses and it wouldn't make a current relapse worse, correct?
Again, I'm starting Copaxone in 2 weeks.
I know the article talked about all this, but I just need another reassuring opinion. So you think it's definitely okay to get the shot?
When in doubt, ask your neurologist.
Leslie - Yes, it's fine :)
