flu shots and bowel obstruction

I am looking for guidance on whether intestinal adhesions (from three intestinal surguries)and a history of bowel obstructions constitute a "serious chronic medical condition" sufficient to warrant getting a flu shot this year. I am 57 years old and otherwise healthy. So far, either I haven't made a very good case for myself, or it's not considered a serious enough medical condition for getting one of those ultra-scarce flu shots.
