I know no one can really answer this question...so what are you thoughts on getting the H1N1 virus shot after just having a hair transplant???

I just had repair(FUE)...and I must say Iam re-thinking getting this shot...Who the heck knows what it could do to new grafts. I have asthma and was told I would be at a high risk...better get it I guess.

As it's based on the standard seasonal flu jab, I wouldn't worry about it.

I would avoid the N1H1 shot but you should be ok with the H1N1 shot. Wink

Shouldn't be an issue. Our case for tomorrow came down with H1N1 2 days ago and had to reschedule. I think the flu will hit alot of practices, patients and staff this year.

I have heard that patients with a history of asthma should not be getting the live vaccine which is the one that is placed into the nasal cavity. If you are considering this you should only be getting the vaccine that is a injection.
