  1. John W - Yes, of course. But they should get a flu shot every year as should everyone else.

  2. Lindsey - yes definitely!

    but do NOT get the flu vaccine!

    flu vaccines are intended for the very old and very young, not everyone in between.

    Also, since type 1 is autoimmune, it puts you at risk for developing MORE autoimmune diseases! There is a link between Barre Syndrome and vaccines when you have another autoimmune disease.
