Normal flu shots over here are normally reserved for the elderly and people especially at risk. So, I only had one once and of course I felt rubbish for like two days before then skipped getting the flu that year.
I won't be rushing to get the H1N1 shot. I had a family member over here that did catch it and she was super sick for about a week and got excellent medical care over here. Still, I am not rushing for this one.
That said, I do have a serious tendency to get bad and frequent chest infections. So, a few years ago I had a pneumonia shot and I would go so far as it having changed my life. I have only caught winter chest infections once or twice since and never pneumonia.
