I got the regular flu shot early October and was slated to get the swine flu one today. However because I am on a course of steroids & antibiotics I can't have it until they are finished. Hopefully they will have a new batch of the shots in before the end of the month and I can get it then.

I have a compromised immune system because of the steroids so I'm staying home and refusing visitors. It's a bit scary to think that that combined with my lung disease means catching any old virus that's lurking about could literally send me off this mortal coil.
