Got mine and I felt fine. I had a cold when I got it so I was already feeling like crap.

In this country we have to monitor and choose carefully which vaccinations we are getting and especially to our children. Flu shot will never be one I'll get.

I got my flu shot and I got sick the next day. I spent a whole week sick then I got over it. Haven't gotten sick since so I think it may work.
Good luck!

The flu shot pretty much puts the flu in your body. A lot of ppl get sick after getting it. Most doc say you already had a cold coming before hand. I've always been against it but I have to receive the shot for my job on Fri and I'm dreading if I'm gonna get sick or not. I think the exact same does it even work or do u have to have it first.
