I Have Avoided Getting Flue Shots And Vaccinations In General. This Has Been My Own Decision Not With Any Medical Advice. Right Or Wrong?

I agree with you, Mary! I have taken no Covid shots no flu shots no shots of any kind. So far I’m letting what’s left in my own meal system fight for me so far so good!

I am hearing this more and more. I know of people that have face paralysis after getting the COVID vaccine. I know my symptoms didn't begin until the day my doctor gave me the flu and shingles vaccine at the very same time....... It is almost like we are rolling the dice now when we get the shots. I do not trust it at all.
My life is totally different now. I am not afraid to speak up about it, if it would save someone from what I have to live with.

I had the first 2covid shot after the second one I ended up up with mg . The only vaccine I have had cense is pneumonia shot . I want nothing to do with the new mRNA delivery system and no live vaccines.!!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts Cindy. Yes, we need to stay healthy and safe. The sad truth about Myasthenia Gravis is that for some people certain vaccines, antibiotics, muscle relaxers, etc. will actually make the MG symptoms much worse. Every person is different in their journey with MG, I believe this is part of what makes this disease so misunderstood for many people.
