Subject: I am still torn about this H1N1 shot...

The school is offerring it some time in November. They sent home a permission slip for parents to sigh yes or no they want their kids to get one. I originally signed yes, then I talked to our pediatrician, and she said she doesnt recommend it, that was last week. She said that it hasnt been tested enough, no one knows full side affects, etc...So I said no then. I had to take my youngest to her yesterday for being sick, and I asked her again, instead of going thru her nurse over the phone. She said she probably would get them the shot now. She said that she has seen so many kids lately, (which must have been within a week *shakes head) that now she says she would. Said she would definitely have my middle son get one, since hes on methotrexate for his arthritis, his immune system wouldnt be 100%. I dont know what to do now? Do you guys have any opinions? suggestions? Im really at a loss here. Im going to call the childrens hospital and talk to my sons pediatric rheumatologist that he sees and get her opinion today, but I really dont know what to do?
