Guest guest Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Be careful and think about it before a flu shot while on tx. I got a terrible very uncomfortable rash over my entire body after a flu shot. I got a hep b booster shot and the flu shot was a last minute suggestion and was told by the np a flu shot will be fine at the same time. the urgicare doctor who saw the rash said the rash was a direct result of the two shots given at the same time. Not only do I have the rash, my confidence in the np has plummeted. I asked her repeatedly if taking the 2 shots at the same time was o.k. and the fact I am on interferon and ribviran. She said not a problem. If she would have told me there was a small chance of side effects like this, I would have waited for another visit for the flu shot.
