Flu shots, why do they always make me feel sick?

[JCMach1]

Every time... usually get mild fever and symptoms... I suppose that means it is working, right?

1. I think yes

even though I never had a flu shot.

:hi: JC, how are you and your family doing?

[JCMach1]

2. Great, we just got back from our Holliday break in Nepal

So, had a lot of fun!

How are things where you are?

3. Mild fever is the immune system reaction

Means it's working and building the antibodies to fight the living flu when it comes down the pike. The other symptoms are usually due to the fever.

4. Flu shots are giving you small doses of the expected strain of Flu for this year

that's how they work

5. I never get them.

Got sick on that swine flu shot back in the day and that was enough for me.

Hope you feel better.
