That was totally a lot of injections LOLZ. I only got the H1N1 shot and seasonal flu shot. I will have to get vaccines for those too. Thank you for the interesting and informative article. - Pinoy I definitely love reading your insight and learning from your blogsite. That was totally a lot of injections LOLZ.

It would be interesting to know what percentage of people actually get side-effects. In my experience (albeit relatively small sample size - say around 100 or so), I'd say that at least 1/2 the people that I know who took it have had some kind of negative symptoms - maybe 20% or so have had bad enough symptoms to make them choose not to take it (nightmares, paranoia and the like), and only a couple who have had really serious reactions (i.e., requiring hospitalization). It would be tempting to try to start a round while you're still in Canada (and close to medical options) to see if you have any reaction, except that the symptoms seem to get worse over time for many (opposite for me), and you really only want to be on them for as short as possible. On a related note, don't forget to pack some oral rehydration salts - handy to have some on you when in remote areas in case there is a need....
