Has anyone had the two jabs at the same time? I've got mine booked in for Thursday and my anxiety is through the roof about it. Never had a flu jab before so having two at the same time if freaking me out.
Whats the worst side effects I could get? Don't want to be ill over xmas.

I get hit hard with colds a flu so struggling to decide what to do for the best.


HELP!

I was supposed to get both done last week Paul and never made the appointment - I chickened out so I can sympathise with you!

Hello Paul,

My husband, son and myself all had both ours together. The swine flu one gave us an uncomfortable arm, though not unbearable, for a day or two. My husband felt a wee bit out of sorts the next day. We then went on to feel fine. So don't worry.

Had both of mine done at the same time, no big dramas, the swine flu one gave me a painful arm for a few days but other than that no other symptoms.
