Scheduled by flu shot for Saturday. First time getting one. I'm actually a little nervous about it.

I don't like feeling sick.

I barely ever felt anything the 3 or 4 times I took it. Just a mild pain in the arm. (NM) - Marlowe Oct 5, 06:50
I mean it happens. It doesn't not happen. They should tell you to take acetaminophen if you get sick. - con_carne Oct 5, 06:15
Everyone is different but I have never had any physical response to a flu shot, other than, maybe, a slightly sore arm if i touch it. -- nm - Andie Oct 5, 06:01
Good news! You likely won't feel anything from it but a sore arm. -- nm - Barynn Oct 5, 05:42 4
- Fingers crossed. Definitely worth getting it of course. -- nm - sycor Oct 5, 05:48
- my friend and I both got boosted yest and she was like "remember when we were kids and needles were the scariest thing ever and now - judge amanda jones Oct 5, 05:44 2
  - I was thinking about exactly this today. Such a non-event now. Did they use the large gauge needles in the ‘80s or something? -- nm - mafic Oct 5, 05:49
  - My pharmacist said a couple drinks after the covid vaccine was okay. I was going out with a friend for their birthday. - sycor Oct 5, 05:47
I don’t recommend getting it with 5 other vaccines, but if it helps that’s the least sore one I got today. -- nm - mafic Oct 5, 05:32 1
- HAHA yeah I specifically chose not to get it at the same time as my booster. -- nm - sycor Oct 5, 05:49
I got mine yesterday. Took one minute. I feel fine. Arm is fine. -- nm - Volnelk Oct 5, 05:24 1
- Cool. I just always hear stories about how it makes you feel bad for a couple days. -- nm - sycor Oct 5, 05:48
