The year before I got PMR/GCA, I took the 'senior' flu shot. I got very sick and felt pretty bad. Since then, I tell the pharmacist that I don't want the 'old people's' flu shot. I take it in one dose and haven't had any issues. I am on monthly Actemra infusions, which probably helps prevent any potential flare.
