This is the third year I've had the flu jab now. Before I was coming down with a god-awful chest infection every winter - one year it turned into walking pneumonia. Ever since I've starting having the jab? A cold at most. One week of feeling moderately shit instead of two weeks of going to the loo being like climbing Pen Y Fan. Helps slightly that my doctor's practice recommends I get one, even though the only way I can see the flu affecting my epilepsy is that it could affect my medication's efficacy. This year I got mine the first day our local supermarket started offering them.
As for reactions, the first year I got it my upper arm swelled up like a sausage quite interestingly, but it went down.
As for blood tests, I'm probably due one soon to test whether my drugs aren't destroying my liver...if my daft GP can bother remembering that is... >.<
