I have had the regular flu shot, but not since i got bad with the cepacia . So i am thinking about not getting the vaccine (H1N1). Does it give you a touch of the virus? I don't think my lungs will survive that. The doc said they couldn't give me the meropenum again because the side effects are too great for my liver . It is the only one that the cepacia is sensitive to . So should i take my chances and stay at home till the threat is gone(yeah !!!!! no more grocery shopping) or get the vaccine. I have not gotten sick since nov 2008. Been being very careful.
