buzzborne,

actually, the more you use it the sooner the soreness will go away. I've been told that by more than one health worker and they're always right

Both my dad (who is T2) and husband had those side effects from the flu shots...neither has had a pneumonia shot though.

I'm glad y'all have been able to get flu shots. We have no flu vaccine in our area. I work with kids all day, so I'm trying to wash my hands constantly and avoid being sneezed on!
