This is such a specialized treatment and is individualized to the patient so that no general statements can be made about how it would interact with different medications including vaccines. This question should be asked of the physician in charge of your treatment to be sure you get the answer for your specific condition.
No, you cannot get the flu from receiving the flu shot. The flu shot contains inactivated virus particles that cannot cause the flu.
Our arms always become sore after receiving a flu shot. This will take three or four days to subside, if not call your doctor.
First, there is typically no pressing reason to find out if you had a flu shot in the past. Since you must get flu shot annually, a flu shot history is not important to most people. If you still feel you need to know, you might try calling your primary care provider (current and past), your employee health department (current and past) and the Department of Health to find out if they have records of your receiving a flu shot.
No, but if you get swine flu and regular flu shot, it will be harder to get the flu.
It takes about two weeks for the flu shot to provide full protection against the flu virus. However, some protection may start as early as a few days after receiving the vaccine.
the flu shot was as painful as a bee sting.
So you don't get the flu.
Yes, you can still get the flu shot. The flu shot should not be gotten if you are currently ill, but if you are on antibiotics, it is OK to get.
You have to wait until your better then you get the flu shot
They don't shoot you, and it isn't a 'shot' of a drink, it's a needle in the arm. In the 2009-2010 flu season there was a mist as well as a shot for the vaccination for swine flu. In the 2010-2011 flu season the vaccine for swine flu protection is included in the one vaccination for the seasonal flu.
Yes. In fact, now the seasonal flu shots are combined with the H1N1 Virus flu shot, so you don't have to get two.
I bet it is to prevent the Flu.
