For Influenza Prophylaxis "I received the flu mist on a Thursday evening. By Friday night, I had congestion in my head, a sore throat, and just an all-around sick/drained feeling. I get sick easily and had a feeling I would react this way, but was assured by healthcare providers it was the better route. After listening to the benefits, I decided to give it a try."

For Influenza Prophylaxis "Received the FluMist vaccine 2 days ago. Started to have a runny nose that evening that progressed to nasal congestion, sore throat, cough, and feeling drained. Still feeling ill. Might as well take my chances with the flu!! Never again."
