I recently got a flu shot for the first time in about 15 years. Too many people I knew came down with it last year so I bit the bullet and decided to protect myself. Unfortunately the day I got the flu shot was the same day of my avonex injection. The next 2 days I was weaker than usual but then back to normal. Well normal for me is general lower extremity weakness. The following week after my avonex shot the same thing happened so I took a week off from avonex. This past week the day after my avonex injection , I had to use my wheel chair because my legs were so weak I could hardly walk and was afraid of falling.
I had been on avonex for years, went off for about 3 years and back on inJanuary. I never experienced this kind of reaction. My conclusion is that it has to be from the flu shot.
Has anyone else out there had a similar experience?
