I've been trying to get my flu shot since last October. Well, a flu, Covid booster & a pneumonia shot - if eligible - to be exact. It's become very difficult for me to get out for anything short of the hospital really. I'm becoming less & less able to do anything without getting short of breath dammit. But, finding someone to come to me to give the shots has been a tough go.
Sunday, I talked to London Drugs, where I get my drugs, & was told I was out of luck until October when the new vaccines came in . . . . Monday, my doctor's office called to ask if I got my flu shot & I had to say I was on a list somewhere but no one had called me since last fall so I had given up. Suddenly, all hell breaks loose & I get multiple calls from a drugstore I've never heard of and a call from the Health Authority on Tuesday. The Health guys say the Contractor drugstore had called me multiple times with no answer & given up. The Contractor drugstore had NOT called me until that very day, but it was multiple times. I did take advantage of the confusion & booked the very first appointment!! In the end, I got all three shots - TODAY - Wednesday. I've had a very busy three days!!!
I hope I didn't go too far in getting all three at once but I thought I should make the call worth the trip. I'll probably be sick as a dog tomorrow from all this but what the hell. I'm protected for another year.
