Guest guest Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Hi there I beg to differ with the doctors about this not being from the flu shot. Doctors being who they are will always tell you it could not be from any medication they have perscribed for you. I worked for an elderly gentleman for 2 years. He got the flu shot every year and was always sick the whole winter. He decided not to get the flu shot and he was not sick that winter at all nor the next 2. People can react to drugs big time. I speak from experience. Doctors tell you this is good for you and should you choose to disagree they become very upset that you dare to question them. No I have never had a flu shot. Never want one either. The children of the world are being poisoned along with the adults and all the pets that are owned by people. It is a drug world run by the big pharmacy companies that are making money hand over fist. They do not care that the vaccinations that the children are being given are full of toxicity and is causing mutiple problems. The flu shot will only cover a few strains of flu and there are many strains that the flu shot is not covering. Taking vitamins, other supplements eating healthy that will keep you healthy. I am sorry you are on this path but I think if you look around you will find lots of information that can get you healthy. I wish you all the best.

I have been having some pretty serious problems since October, and have had no answers from my doctor. I had a flu shot in October, and the day after, my symptoms started. This was only the second flu shot I've ever had, and last year I had some of these symptoms, but not nearly as extreme. It started with severe pain in my fatty part of my upper arm, then in my arm pit and breast. It then turned to numbness that has slowly spread to my face, ear and neck. The back of my left thigh is also numb. I can feel it in my left eye at times too, and the skin is raw feeling. I have pain in my lower back, and my legs have been weak. I have overall fatigue most of the time.I have fybromyalgia and hashimoto's thyroid disease. My blood pressure has also been very high, with the lower number averaging in the high 90's-low 100's. My doctor said this is not from my flu shot, and at my insistance, sent me to a neurologist. They also said it's most likely not from the flu shot. They did an evoked potentials and an MRI. The MRI showed some congenital cysts in my brain. All of the tests in the EP were normal, except the upper extremities tested poor. The doctor said that he is attributing that to me not fully relaxing. I have been on a beta blocker, but it is not touching my blood pressure. The neurologist told me to take my BP four times a day and keep a log. It does not change throughout the day. I am very worried and frustrated, and would really love to find out if anybody else has been through this. I'm sorry my post is so long, but I didn't want to leave anything else out.
