No flu shot for me

People around here are dropping like flies. Don't know if it's the flu or not - seems too early but makes me nervous b/c when I was getting my annual check up last week with my primary care doc, she advised against the flu shot this season since I was going to be doing IVF. Something about it being within 30 days of your cycle affects implantation or something. I figured I'd take her advice but now am getting paranoid. I see lots of hand washing in my future!
