      I work in a large school. Nurses come to us once a year to give fly shots for those who want it. I usually get one, I had not considered that surgery would have any beating on that.

    I just had surgery yesterday and they emphasized that I couldn't get the flu shot for 3 weeks.

    I had to provide proof of a flu shot before they would book me for surgery (hospital rules). My PCP makes sure I get one every year anyway.

    I get called into the doctors surgery to get one every year - I do have diabetes too though.
