    Default Flu Vaccine???

    So I went last week and got the flu shot, they said it was power-packed with two vaccines in one!!

    So guess what??? I"ve got the flu!! I've been battling for 2 days now, and it seems to be winning.

    How can I enjoy Turkey Day, pies, football games and everything else when I feel so miserable. Hell, I can't even make any pies, something I look forward to. Can't go visiting anybody either, for fear of infecting everyone else. I'll just have to ask friends and fam to send over a plate, hoping I'll get to enjoy it eventually. I wouldn't wish this on anyone.

    And yes, I'm whining....

    aaaahhh my friend you picked the right place to whine! We are all here to lend in our helping hand for you to feel better!

    My best advice is drink lots and lots of orange juice, rest like crazy, go to bed early and no going to bars tonight!

    Hope you feel less miserable tomorrow! Happy Thanksgiving!

    Never ever had I had a flu shot and I never plan to get it.
    I have heard way too many horror stories about it....
    I will let my natural immune system to help sort it out.

    You realise that the flu shot is actually them giving you a little bit of the flu so your antibodies can build against it? That's what a vaccine is, them giving you a little bit of what you're getting a vaccine against!

    Exactly. So if your immune system has been weak before the shoot it is not at all weird that you are suffering from flu symptoms - and it is very common side effect.

    There is a lot of evidence that vaccines are actually more harmful to your body than the diseases they are supposed to protect you against. It's beyond me why would anyone want to be a subject to eugenics and medical experiments.

    Here is an interesting quote by Bill Gates that should make you wonder: “First we got population. The world today has 6.8 billion people. That’s headed up to about 9 billion. Now if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we lower that by perhaps 10 or 15 percent.”

    Joking apart its not a very nice feeling to have the flu when everybody around you are having fun & drinking...............I feel for you!!!!!

    The good news that it will be over in a few days then its your time to start catching up on what you missed out on.................

    Take care and keep warm...................plenty of hot tea and while nobody is looking slip in a tot or two of whiskey!!!!

    Happy thanks Giving to all

    I am not surprised at all. I have been trying to convince all my loved ones NOT to have the flu vaccine! Although the relevant authorities have not been open about it, the 'standard' flu jab actually now includes the contraversial Swine flu vaccine as well, which so many people fought against having. They believe that by slipping it in silently, no one will notice or make a stir.

    This is not conspiracy theory, it is actually happening in front of our very own eyes and MORE. If it sounds too far out, perhaps this will do more to convince you. http://www.davidicke.com/headlines/3...eedle-everyone

    David Icke (to me) is one of the most insightful researchers/reporters of our time and it is thanks to him that we are really starting to put together pieces of a very important puzzle that affects all of humanity.

    Ok, now I am sounding like an activist! Everyone is entitled to their own beliefs and these are mine.

    Have a great Friday!!!

    Well Keith, your boobs weren't as big as I thought they'd be, but that's just my opinion

    The bug lasted longer than I expected. Still dealing with the dregs..miserable weather doesn't help either.

    I still believe the flu shot is used to control populations.. wouldn't touch it. Everyone who gets it ends up sick.

    I think it's complete propaganda.

    Healthy people don't take things like this and don't get sick.

    I personally advocate lots of Vitamin C: Oranges, Lemon, Kiwis and blackcurrant especially.

    Poor dear... Try some hot black tea with honey and some crushed ginger, it works wonders.

    Or I could suggest a stiff shot of whisky/rum with honey and lemon
