Yesterday, I took the flu vaccine "Vaxigrip". The nurse wanted to give it to me IM but since I have multiple cysts and fibroised areas in both buttocks, I can't take any IM injections. I also said that I always take it SC in my arm. I took it sc last year and the year before. So, I took this year's vaccine SC, too. Today, a friend of mine said she took it this year IM instead of SC.
Also, every year after I take it, I have a mini-flu the day after with low fever and sore throat. I have no symptoms this time. Only the awful nausea since Ibhave taken it till now.But I do have nausea all the time coz of Crohn's and C. Does this mean it won't work? Shouldn't I have taken it? For a month, whenever I want to take it, I have a new problem and my GI postpones it. Yesterday, I felt good and took it. It seems I was mistaken.
