Who got their FLU SHOT?

Not sure I ever reported in, but all 4 in my household got flu shots.

Flu shotted and also boostered (CO so they made everyone eligible as long as you’re 6mo out from the second dose). We’ll see how I feel tomorrow.

Booked my booster appointment and me mentioning it prodded Mr. Meer to book a booster/flu shot appointment for today too. Initially I was looking at Walgreens and they said they had open appointments today but 20 miles away, then CVS had appointments around the corner from me but they were booking up fast and are probably gone for today as I’m typing this.

Scheduled and got my flu shot today (and got Wizard in, too)!

No dice on COVID boosters until the new year, alas.

Got my flu shot and COVID booster on Tuesday!

My arm is still sore and swollen from the booster—in particular, I seem to have a swollen armpit gland. Should I ice it?

I went with heating pad for my swollen armpit lymph node but don’t know if that is the correct call. It felt nice though

Yeah my inclination is heat over cold, motion, and maybe very gentle lymphatic massage.

Oh good, it’s cold so I’d much rather heat it anyway :laughing:

Had an infected lymph node, heat was recommended. I would assume vax side effects aren’t too different.

I have gotten all my jabs this year. But I think I’m due for a tetanus shot and I need to schedule an update to my pneumonia shot since I’m so old.

Our State Premier just announced that flu shots were now free, they’re that desperate to end up with a whopper flu season :crossed_fingers: hoping it works.

I saw this yesterday! Husband will go get a free one from the Covid clinic sometime this week. I got mine at the start of April through my work and the toddler will get hers booked in sometime in the next two weeks, much to her dismay.

I got myself and my eldest child done a few weeks ago. We didn’t do the little one has he had other immunisations on that day.

Then they became free and my mother panicked that they would run out of stock so came over and jabbed the toddler and Mr Pancakes :joy:

The toddler needs a second dose but otherwise we are done.

Good thing too
