Hey group, off topic but about Flu shots and low t-cells

[Guest guest]

Does anyone have any experience with having flu shots with very low t-cells? A friend of mine was recommended not to have a flu shot because his t-cells are 20.. And of course you can not tell him anything, he insists he is gonna get one anyway, he got one last year with only 18 t-cells, and was fine. (he is having problems affording his hiv meds, long story, but because he has a good job and insurance he does not qualify for help from the city, yet his co pays are way to much for him to afford if he uses insurance).

Has anyone on here had a flu shot while having very low t-cells?

I realize he should do what the doc says but he is not always good at that..
