Guest guest Posted November 3, 2001 Report Share Posted November 3, 2001 My doctor divided the dose for me two years ago but after he saw the bad reaction I got from 1/2 dose he decided not to give the other dose. Even with just the 1/2 dose, I did not get the flu that year. I too think a person can get much sicker having the flu and I would certainly get the shot if I could. Unfortunately, I can't get it anymore because I get so sick. Arm swells up the size of my thigh and turns red, then purple all the way down. I am not allergic to eggs or chicken so there's something else in there that I have a reaction to. Hope you are having a good weekend. It is nice here today after a long week of rain and cold weather. Love, Marilyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
