I got the shot (for free via my insurance), and it was completely painless. I looked away from my arm to prevent tensing up, and I literally did not feel the needle go in. There was a little soreness later that day, but not much. Worth keeping in mind—getting the shot is not unpleasant.
Shots, including the flu shot, always cause me pain. I usually tell the person about to give me the shot not to stop if it looks like I’m in extreme pain.
