I had a reaction to a shot, around 1969 or so. It lasted about two days, and was gone. I really didn't want to get another shot the next year, but I did, and, as far as I can remember, I never had another reaction.
Must be why I don’t get the flu. The last shot 4 years ago made me so sick I lost 10 lbs and ended up in the ER for a IV for dehydration. Not had one since. Especially as I’m 67 and they want to force the Super Flu shot on me. I’m considered high risk on top of age, as I have a leaky heart valve, not bad enough to fix yet. And I’m not allergic to eggs. The last 4 left big welt on my arm that hurt for days.
Yeah she gets the regular flu shot, she never gets the shot with the added stuff, just the regular flu shot
I get the vaccine without preserve. It is not hard to find
Glad you made me look
2 5000 i.u. (international units)
every day
K2 and magnesium and zinc help with uptake.
The latter two make me sleep like a bump on a log.
400mgs Mag 50 mgs zinc
Or take a bath with 4 cups of Epsom Salts and 4 cups of Baking soda..
I have a big tub.
Makes you sleepy, Happy , and Your skin feels great
Keep your pH up⦠drink lemon juice.
Had a flu shot many years ago and my arm swelled, turned red, and I got the flu, was told never to take one again. Had a tetanus shot years ago, arm swelled, turned red, told never to take one again. I don’t take a flu shot due to that and stay close to home during flu season and wash my hands a lot during that time.
When I was younger, I swore I only got the flu in the years I got the flu shot. Now that I’ve aged, I get the shot every year. Spouse and I got ours in late August and no reaction whatsoever. 30-something son had last month and no problem.

Bookmark. Never knew what Epsom salts actually did. What is K2? So magnesium and zinc make you sleepy?
If someone dear to you suffers from depression and you can't induce her or him to get some sun every day, convince him to do the D-3 at that 10k level. I just watched it work on a fellow with PTSD from three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. We are both security guards at a shipyard. I watched him go deeper and deeper into depression over a year . He reached a point where I thought he was dangerous to himself or to people around him. He carries a Glock and was getting crazy with it. I finally convinced him to take the D-3 "for flu" because he had got a bad case. we did the mega dose that clears up a case of flu, in my experience (x3), in 12 hours. I told him he had to continue a "maintenance dose" for ten days. When I saw him three days later he was flu free and a normal guy. After the ten days I told him about the effect of sunshine/vitamin d on depression- he is a night shift person so gets no sun- and now he keeps taking the D-3. The depression is gone. I don't hear about or see the Glock any more. No more PTSD.
Thank you for the intel!
A LOT more skeptical.
Now for a short public service announcement to all on FR:
I prefer Cruz and my money goes to his campaign, hence the Cruz link. If you like someone else, donate to him/her (find your own link to do it) and if you use FR and don't donate, then please don't complain about the welfare leeches or those who have Obama Phones because, functionally, you are no different than any other FReeloader.....
GO CRUZ!! Keep it up Trump!!
Back to reality...never had a flu shot, never will.
Pity for those who take the shots instead of the summer sunshine and winter D-3 supplements. The shots vary from minimally effective to 70% or so each year according to the NIH. The Vitamin D is 100% and good for ALL seasonal viruses. A megadose of D-3 in my experience (x3 with other people) is effective in ending a case of flu no matter how severe in under 12 hours.
I have been taking 5000 IU of d3 for years...just recently ‘upgraded’ to the Vitamin d3 produced by Innate Formulas. Pricey and hard to find, but their formula incorporates k1 and k2, and is worth every penny.
Many people in the medical community are forced to take the flu shot. I noticed this year that the cartel seems to be bending a bit...more people being granted ‘exemptions’ of one kind or another, other employees fighting back in court. There has been some serious blowback.
The D3 pills we take are labeled 1000 IU (25mcg) per pill. 10,000 IU per day is 10 such pills, and 10,000 mcg would be 400 such pills. I doubt whether anyone actually takes 10,000 mg of D3 per day.
Personally, I take 2 or 3 if I remember (most days not), and I haven’t had the flu for decades. No flu shots ever.
Interesting about the PTSD. I’m doing a supplement and dietary protocol for a recent Cancer diagnosis. The docs aren’t happy, but they can’t nail down a precise diagnosis or primary. They’re calling it poorly differentiated neoplasm of unknown primary. Dozens of pathologists have looked at my slides and I’ve had three proclamations from three different highly respected institutions: uterin sarcoma, osteo sarcoma, and epithelial carcinoma. So far all tests show no more Cancer in my body, although I had a ct scan Thursday and I’m still waiting on those results (praying for clean scan!). The one thing the docs can agree on is that I should have chemotherapy. I keep saying no. It’s an adventure, but I have God on my side!
