re: How many times in your life have you had the flu?

Probably have had it like 6 or 7 times. Every time I've gotten the shot I've gotten it.

Twice. Diagnosed by swabbing each time. Never had a flu shot.

I've had it at least 4 times in my life. As a matter of fact, I had it last week. After a day and a half I got a prescription for Tamiflu and was on the mend within 24 hours.

Twice. Do NOT want to ever get it again.

Once. Hopefully never again. It was not fun.

3 times,when I was senior in high school,when I was 30 and again whe I was 45.Every time I thought I was going to die.The last time was the worst,took me over a month to feel normal.I have been diligent about taking flu shots since and I haven’t had it again(25 years).

I'm 43. Never had a flu shot. Had the flu once in my life about 20 years ago.

I never got it until post military life. I had the flu shot for 6 years on active duty then the first year out I didn’t get the shot and caught the flu.
Then I got it again about 2 years ago. Both times without the shot.

Had flu a couple times years ago. Got the flu shot ONE TIME year before last AND GOT THE FLU! I'll never have the flu shot again. Might work for some, but the 1 time I got the shot, I got the flu. If my maths still works, that's 100% flu shot bad for me.

Once, in 2009, it was horrible. Since then, I take the flu shot.

many times
When living in Florida, we were doomed to catch it from the Snowbirds, who would bring all their diseases South for the Winter.

Never gotten a flu shot and have had the flu once in my life over 20 years ago
Posted on 3/4/20 at 4:43 pm to LoneStar23
Had it for the first time since 2011 a few weeks ago. Was bad for about 3 days then just felt tired for another 5 without any really bad symptoms. Probably would’ve felt better sooner if I was able to sleep more. My 7 year old had it too, so I was his caregiver.
I work in a hospital and get a lot of flu patients up for physical therapy. Three little Petri dishes at home. It was inevitable at some point. I’ve never gotten the shot.

Once as a kid and I never get the flu shot.
Posted on 3/4/20 at 4:47 pm to LoneStar23
Once when I was like 6 or 7. Still not sure if that’s even what it technically was or not, so the real answer may be 0.
I’ve never had the flu shot either(not saying that did anything one way or the other).
