    "Three weeks ago, I was diagnosed with swine flu on the basis of my symptoms alone and was given Tamiflu.

    As we all know, there is no way of determining if you have suffered from swine flu without lab tests, which are not offered here.

    I then asked my GP if I should go ahead with a normal flu vaccination, which I did, then have the swine flu vaccination later.

    He said I should, but is the latter really necessary if I have already had the infection? "
