Angry Rant: 'flu jabs

Why is it that I've been as sick as a dog since having a 'flu jab last week?

Now am on antibiotics for a chest infection.

I guess different people react differently to the jab, perhaps you were already carrying the virus and once you had the flu jab it developed into the flu? I had the flu jab last year and didnt develop it (or get flu like symptoms), but i refused it this year.

Hope you get better soon..!

My dad has the flu jab every year, and every year he ends up with a cold. Better a cold than him being seriously ill. Having retropiritonealfibrosis makes him extremely susceptible to anything nasty.

retropiritoneal fibrosis

http://www.patient.co.uk/showdoc/40000695/

funnily enough my dads just rung and told me the specialist has given him some good results this time

he has one kidney functioning, but only a very small amount of function at that. Hes been like it for years with treatment he keeps going
Hes superman is my dad
