A member asked:
Can a person with epilepsy get the flu shot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No relationship: Here in the U.S., there is no reason for a person not to get a flu shot just because she has epilepsy, unless she had a prior epilepsy-related reaction to a previous flu shot. Epilepsy and flu shots are unrelated.
