I don't have allergies, asthma or any health issues like that......but no more flu vaccines for me either. My Oncologist at UCLA recommended I get the flu vaccine every year due to the pancreatic cancer. This is my 3rd year and I have as yet not had a reaction to any of them. Of course I don't think he's considered the long term side effects <G> I have an appt. with him Nov. 4th and one of the questions I'll be asking is about the H1N1 vaccine.
