04-11-2009 - swine flu vaccination? sadMy mood while writing this blog:
sad



I called my doctors today regarding the swine flu vaccination, and the receptionist said you can only have it if your elderly or prone to it. How do you know if your prone to swine flu!! I said im pregnant and she said it makes no difference. Its been broadcasted all on the news saying all pregnant women can get the vaccination at their clinic. I have even read about it on the nhs. There has been so many cases of pregnant women catching swine flu and being serious ill in hospital, there was a women last week who died giving birth! Its worrying me alot, why am i not intitled to it? I cant believe how rude the receptionist was to me. It was like she didnt care. In the end she said well, we dont do the vaccination here anyway and put down the phone. I am so angry. Has anyone of your ladies had the vaccination?

talk to your midwife or your doctor direct. im from west midlands too and i had a call from my gps surgery to say im all booked in and ready to go for the vaccine on 18th november, i didnt even need to request it. its better to kick up a fuss now and get it than sigh about it when its too late, and as for the risks involved, my doctor told me that there is no way a vaccination would be recommended for at risk groups if there were health concerns.

yes. pregnant woman can get the shot but my o/b told me that there is a chemical in it that hasnt been tested on pregnant ladies. and that concerns me and why i have not gotten the shot. my lil one and fiance are but i am not save with it. i have told my o/b. she thinks i should take it but then again, shes not the one thats pregnant and worried. do what your heart tells you. if you feel secure about it. also, the nurses are going nuts in hospitals around here. dont know what its like there. and most of them cant even get a break or may even work doubles cuz of the flu season this year. i know she was rude and she had no right, but maybe she was just tired and didnt mean to sound rude...huuuugs!!

I just had it at my docs office. There was even a sign on his door that said H1N1 Vaccine for pregnant patients only.
