@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member Highly doubt it would happen and even if it did there's normally different versions of the flu vaccine anyway so you could just get a version that doesn't have it. Even now every year when it comes out there is five different brands that have versions of it.

I don’t mind the needle . Whether I’m getting blood drawn or inserting a form of medicine or Vaccine in me.

Ever since I was a kid , the needle never bothered me. Many nurses were shocked on how easy I was. I didn’t kick or scream like many kids did.

I am sorry to hear that. I didn't get the flu shots until I was like 45 and then haven't gotten them since I've been back to California. Had COVID 3 times. And I agree about that jab.
