moonchilde: Glad it worked out with minimal soreness. DH also got the 65+ shot.

DH said he didn't feel his flu shot at all. If it wasn't for the band-aid, and the sore arm next day, he'd have thought they scammed him.

I did OK with not touching mine, but my 35lb puppy didn't get the memo. Ow.

Hi raven: Honestly I'm not keen on it, only having had the flu twice in my lifetime.

But I still do it. Your choice.

I get the flu shot not just for my own protection but for others I come in contact with.

I had the trivalent without preservatives today at the clinic inside Walgreens. The other Walgreens without clinics also administer them but they looked too busy to be bothered. I liked the private room and the ability to ask questions without being overheard. This is my first flu shot in over 10 years I believe, after having a bad reaction I had said never again. In that 10 years I only got sick once but have to take my stepmom to many dr visits over the coming months (she never gets the flu vaccine and never gets sick) and I don't like going to dr offices during flu season. Hope it protects me but I know that its effacacy is only around 60%. Should satisfy all the nudges and kevetchers. (not talking about you cakers or anyone thus far on this thread). {#emotions_dlg.biggrin}
