Reply to "terrified of getting the flu"

I got the live version of the shingles vaccine some months before I went on Remicade.  I had chicken pox when I was 6, so that virus is still in my body.  I actually saw my Grandfather go through a bout with shingles and it can be painful and prolonged.

I was also recommended by my PCP to get the pneumonia vaccine.  I can't recall if that was before or after I went on Remicade.
