If you get a flu shot don't get one with any preservatives in it. You could be sensitive to the preservatives and you will feel like you are sick anyways.

If I do end up getting sick and I need to get over it quickly, I just go to the Dr and tell them to get me the "Z pack"
That little 3-5 pill pack works wonders..

Ah now we're getting somewhere. What exactly do I ask for? No preservatives? Sounds like maybe I need to actually a Dr for that or do you think places like CVS have it?

Yes, ask for the flu shot without preservatives. Do your own research though some people do not like the idea of the use of formaldehyde in vaccines. I personally did not get a flu shot because of that this year. CVS and others do clinic days but I think it's to late for that so you will probably have to see the Dr.

Go to cvs. It's like $30 unless your insurance covers it. I had to get one before I started my chemo.

Going tomorrow for sure. Our insurance probably covers it, for as much as we pay it should include whole body replacement LOL.

Hang in there man. One of my cousins at the docks just got through battling lymphoma. He's doing good now as far as I know. Took a lot out of him but he came through it. Hang in there!!
