Hello Iñigo, welcome to the forum ... in this case I can contribute little, because I am like you, I throw a real mess ... at first I thought that without hesitation, then the shog of the side effects and others entered me and II threw back, and now I'm rethinking it ...
Marcita, a mother of the forum yesterday vaccinated her 4 -year -old daughter, says that everything is good ...
And of efficiency .... that is another.
Greetings.

Hi Iñigo,
As Velia told you, I vaccinated my daughter yesterday.I also had many doubts, but talking to Noe's pediatrician, my ideas were clarified.He told me that it is still a flu vaccine like any other, which are manufactured in summer to use them in the early fall and also has the experience of other countries where they have already been vaccinated a few months ago and no have been detectedType of secondary effect.
As for Noe, except the high glycemia in the afternoon, as with the other vaccine, for the moment no reaction.In addition, I also encouraged myself to put it at the root of the two deaths of girls in Catalonia by flu A and without previous pathologies ...
I hope I have clarified something.

I will tell you that I am the same as you.I am a mother of a 16 -year -old boy and was totally convinced to put it on;Then I got doubts and especially because my son did not want to put it on him and in the end I have listened to him and he has not put it;I do not know if we have done well or not but I am quite uneasy, I would like to know if someone has put it on and had adverse side effects.

Well, I was almost convinced to put it on, but I have gone to the doctor today and he told me that if his daughter would not put it on and that he does not plan to put on.It does not offer guarantees.
Between that and the background of a "Guillain Barré" in the family, I fear that I do not put it on.

I have put it, and without any collateral effect, except for the flu feeling on Friday night and Saturday afternoon.

And the swollen and hurt arm ... until today.

Greetings.

Chus, the Guillain Barré is a syndrome whose cause is unknown, but it is of autoimmune origin, such as diabetes 1.

It is a syndrome that affects the nervous system, which produces the loss of myelin, which is something like what covers the nerves.

My mother had it and the symptoms were that she stopped walking, of being able to move on itself, lost all strength and coordination, apart from having strong pain.
For months he had a slow recovery.I couldn't do anything, not even eat alone or hold the spoon.
Thank God, he had the acute version and not the chronicle, because that would have left it incapacitated forever.

I am convinced that, being autoimmune and, in addition, having a family history, Celia can have a greater predisposition to suffer from it, so I will not vaccinate it.

I hope I had no more.
