Even if you get your flu shot can you still get the flu?
I have been feeling like crap more than normal, not wanting to eat, water even upsetting my stomach, and getting sick (I didn't get morning sickness)... but I go back to work this morning and they tell me the girl I usually work with has the flu and I really hope she didn't give it to me.
need suggestions.... So at work we have a drink thief. Any time we put a drink in the fridge it disappears. I swear I know who it is. So far he's taken drinks from everyone that works in the office, we even put a sign to not take anything you didn't pay for and wrote our names on the drinks. The person I think is taking them works out of the office so we never get to see who is drinking them.
My doctor also recommended me getting the flu shot while pregnant ? I'm not sure if I want to or if i should ? It's all scary to me !! What do you ladies think ? Did you get the flu shot while pregnant ? Are there any risks? Or should I wait ? I'm so scared of taking anything while pregnant , much less getting this shot.. He said it isn't mandatory , just recommended.
Views on getting the flu vaccine? I work on an ambulance and do not get sick usually... last time I received the flu shot I got the flu.
but first this is the test I got excited about, I took it later yesterday morning at only 8dpo. Did I get excited for nothing? :( I didn't tell anyone other than preggie and hubby, I showed him the test and he was so happy it breaks my heart. Ik I still have a week before my period is even due so Ik If I was I'm very early but that negative this morning has me honestly crushed! what do you think by this test? what would you have thought? :( What would you be thinking now if you got a neg the next morning?
morning sickness What worked for you... If anything? And go

Sometimes it can give you a few days of flu like symptoms. When the flu shot is developed every year they are only guessing the strains. Sometimes they are wrong so people get the flu anyways.

Yes. The flu shot is a "dead" form of the virus strain. You're Essentially putting the flu virus inside your body. It's a dead form to get your system prepared to fight the live virus. So yes you can get sick from this

There injecting you dead and alive antibodies I think lol so your antibodies have to respond to it if your immune system is weak than you will get the " flu " but if you have a strong immune system than you won't feel much. If heard horrible things that's why I don't get it

Unfortunately yes even after getting the flu shot you can still catch the virus, like @lil_bigmama said it doesn't cover all strains of the flu

It's not a 100% cure for it. You can most certainly get the flu. It's mutates it's strain every year. It's a virus that's what they do that's why they can't come up with a cure for it cause it mutates around the vaccine each year. They give you the shot for the most likely strain to present in that flu season. The one that actually presents can be totally different and then your shot is obsolete
