DH and I got our flu shots just today, Saturday.

I got my covid booster about 8 days ago.

We got our Covid booster 2 weeks ago. We are getting our flu shots on Monday.

We got our flu shot a week or 2 ago

We got the Pifzer covid vax. we were told booster is 6 months after last shot. DH is 65+ but not at 6 months yet. He's prostate cancer survivor.

I'm 62 & healthy not sure when I can get my covid booster.

3 local walgreens don't do the booster anyway (at least at this time)

Did you get sick after the booster? I got chills, fever and upset stomach. I got mine on Tuesday and still not feeling great. My flu shot is scheduled for Friday.

I got the Covid booster and the quadravalent flu shot for seniors on Sept. 27. The pharmacist recommended both shots at once, in case I should have side effects from either. You might as well be under-the-weather once instead of twice, she said. I had two sore arms for several days, didn't feel 100% either, but that was just for one day. I am glad it's over and done with for both shots.

I'll be getting my flu shot next week which will be 2 weeks since I received the booster.

@elated other than the usual soreness at the injection site on my upper arm, I felt no different with the Pfizerbooster shot. I also had no reaction after the initial two shots of Pfizer shot 6 months ago other than the sore arm, and not really very sore at all.

Since you are sensitive to the shots... why not put off your flu shot for a month out from your booster shot? No since to chance feeling worse and still plenty of time for the flu shot to start protecting you.

I just got mine this morning at my pharmacy. I turned 65 in April, so I got the high dose shot for the first time. My arm is somewhat sore but I am moving it around and don't anticipate any problems. I wanted to get it now so a couple of weeks will pass before getting the Pfizer booster when it becomes available to those 65 and over.

@Wiscfan3 DH and I just had our flu shots yesterday at a phamacy... they never offered the high dose shot and we received the regular flu shots...

I read that you really only need the high dose if you are truely elderly... and have health issues. We are just both 65 and healthy. No health issues at all. I never asked about the high dose flu shot... but wonder if you need to ask about it or they automatically just give you the regular one perhaps??
