In case you haven't heard, this year's flu jab will include the swine flu vaccine. Last year I had a severe allergic reaction to the swine flu jab and was advised not to have it again. My GP surgery have only just found out about this year's vaccination and are refusing to give it to me and I am reluctant to insist as last time I was so badly affected that I now am supposed to carry and Epipen everywhere because they can not catergorically say it was the swine flu jab...covering their backs of course!
Anyway, I am awaiting further advice from the NHS Direct people about my options- according to my DSN I have no options but I never go down without a fight so will report back later😉 In the meantime, I wanted to advise you all in case any of you are having the flu jab but are not yet aware about the swine flu element.
