Hi Susan,
I had all my kids (ages 4, 8, 10 & 12) vaccinated last Monday (what fun that was!!). They had both the H1N1 and the regular infuenza vaccine. None of them had any side affects from the vaccines.
My Mom is taking me tuesday to get the h1n1 vaccination.
I heard in the news, about some people having adverse affects from the shot?
My mom was a bit worried; But Im sure getting the virus is worse.
My whole family (me, husband , non-DMD son and DMD son) was vaccinated over a week ago, when the vaccines first came out. None of us had any problems. Make sure you get the injected vaccine, not the nasal flumist given your chronic condition (and immunosuppression?) I wouldnt be too concerned about side effects
Mia--from what I understand the H1N1 would of been included in the seasonal flu shots if found sooner. Next year one shot for both. Both kiddos got both and waiting for the second dose of H1N1.
