If you have rec' d the H1N1 vaccine - please report

[CrunchRN]

How was it? Side effects?

Please, no debate on whether or not to do it. Just reports from those who have rec'd it.

A completely non-scientific poll!

Had the H1N1 shot 2 weeks ago and had zero side effects.

I had mine last Friday. Didn't even get a sore arm. Did get a pretty sore arm from the seasonal injection, though

Co-worker and I got IM injections last Friday - figuring we'd be sick together!! Neither one of us had any ill-effects! Glad I got it, after contemplating it for weeks:D

Finally made up my mind to get the IM vaccination yesterday. My arm is a little sore today. No other problems!

[xoemmylouox, ASN, RN]

I got the injection. It hurt a lot less than the regular flu shot. No problems! I was glad to be able to get it.

I had the shot, I didn't even feel it, no SE

I got the nasal spray, and was nervous that I'd get some symptoms, but nope, no reaction whatsoever.

Had mine last Friday, in the am. Felt way tired by the afternoon. sore arm that night that lasted about 2 days as well as a bit of fatigue. But feeling fine now.

We didn't make it to out shot clinic....got the actual H1N1 virus first!! I wonder what type of response there would be if someone started a thread that said "If you had H1N1-please report" lol

Received H1N1 vaccine along with #2 Anthrax, sigh...Mandatory for us Army Folk!

DD2 and I got the IM, DS had the flumist. Easy peasy. They need boosters in a couple of weeks, and I figure that'll be fine too. Also got seasonal flu and had no problems.

Had the IM, my arm was sore after about an hour after recieving it, was pretty sure that I had a slight fever during the night, but next day I forgot that I had taken it, felt fine.
