Went to the doc this week to discuss my swine flu jab. I thought if I get it it would cause me problems with me having constant bladder infections etc, but aparently it's because of my shunt. It would cause mega problems with that. OMG!!! I never even gave it a thought. :eek:

Making sure I'm not confused... They said the swine flu shot would mess with your shunt?

[katie]

No sorry - the virus itself. She said it would definitely have a bad effect on the shunt if I caught it.

Excellent info! Thanks for posting!
