This kind of reaction happens maybe one in a BILLION times. And the saying that getting the flu shot gives you the flu is so much BS... any vaccine that is injected is a dead virus... it can not reproduce and make you sick... what happens is that it takes up to 2 weeks for your body to produce the antibodies to the virus. So if you are exposed to the virus prior to that, then you get the flu, and "the shot gave me the flu!!" Sorry, I don't mean to come off like a jerk, or jump on anybody... But I travel around giving flu shots to different companies here in town, and I hear that stuff all the time. You folks have a good night.
