A few days ago, I got a flu shot. Within a few hours, the area turned red, hot, itchy, swollen, and painful. Now it’s still like that a little bit, but the redness is now bruising. Then I asked a dermatologist about it, and he said that the MA didn’t go deep enough, and so the fluid sat under the skin, causing that reaction. I forgot to ask him, am I still protected? I would think that it would still be absorbed and I would be, but I have been known to be wrong. Once, in 1977.
